That looks really smart. Were they a kit or custom?

They are from a company in the UK. He sells on Ebay - go to his store click Chrysler then type in Crossfire and you will see what they are making for our cars, and you can get the items in different leather colors and stitching.

today i drove home from a holiday and a visit to my friendly merc shop. 900kms round trip
they instaledl my Needswings Catch Can and ic isolator, set the GC ride hight,more level , alighned it and fitted my new Meinlenkramp steering wheel !



The power handling and comfort too of this car is awesome now. and i love the steering wheel ,expensive but its so nice to use.
Still waiting for the Black dash kit and rest of the console leather to arrive.

I did a polish and wax last Thursday in preparation for a new local Cars and Coffee yesterday. I met up with Dan there and decided as I was leaving that one to hit another one on the way home. All the details and some pics are located here.

My engine started running very rough and, after research on Forum, realized it was probably the CPS. . I had bought a spare when I bought the car. Found a PDF on how to replace it. Running great and CEL is gone. Thanks

Yes thanks to this forum i bought a spare CPS too , it was still in the glove box when my engine died with No prior Warning ,miles from anywhere with no tools . I had to get it towed to my mechanics .and sure enough it was the dreaded CPS that had failed.
It was an expensive lesson !

To buy this steering wheel contact Joanna at Meinlenkrad ,her email is: ebay@meinlenkrad.de

You can look at Meinlenkrads steering wheels on ebay Germany but they do say there that they only ship within the EU.
That said ,Joanna has been very helpfull and arranged fabrication and shipping on two steering wheels to me here in Australia.
They usually work on a Core wheel that you send to them to modify. I did not want to wait so i paid them for a new wheel and they worked their magic on that. Their workmanship is Perfect !
Joanna's english is not perfect but its much better than my German and we got thru ok.
as far as colours go, the grey Alcantra and grey leather is a perfect match to the srt seats and dash. My mate here bought one with red perf leather sides instead of grey to match his inferno red car and red dash kit
.

Replaced the fuel filter/regulator at 46k miles - and I swear the throttle response improved significantly!! Did that ever happen to any of you?

Panel under the steering wheel, dashboard top the cabin divider top and door centre panels would be great.

carl they are all from the same company in the Uk. They will do many different colors - my choice was blood red to match my headliner.
