Hello All,

I'm trying to get my steering wheel retrimmed. The colour code for my car is 234A - Nappa Saffron/Java. I assume the seats are Saffron and the upper dash and wheel are Java;

I've tried a couple of reputable trimmers, but they haven't been able to source any suitable coloured leather. I thought at least if I knew the name of the colour I was looking for it might help!

Or, if anyone can recommend a trimmer that might be able to help, I'd be very grateful.

Thanks,
Justin.

Have you tried Jack at Royal Steering Wheels?
Excellent reputation and does a terrific job.
He can also do custom work if required (reproduced grips, thumb rests etc).
