Hey RSM you can otherwise try out those pre-fabricated steering wheel covers. They just have to be fitted over the steering wheel. No removing and stuff. I have it in my Safari and its really good. Even i do sweat out sometimes and this cover can be useful!

Cooldhaya, can you post a picture of steering cover please.

I think cooldhaya is referring to such steering wheel covers -

For any steering cover installation , there is no need to remove the steering wheel .

Even for leather stitch type , or these cover type work is done as such.

Stitch on type is better , it may take time but its best . Be it leather or pu type.

Actually, Fiat doesn't have any steering cover on their genuine accessories list.

Though i enquired and its coming in Feb. So i will see that first before seeing others.

Below is the email communication with them, at-least i always get a reply from them.

Dear Sir,
We have developed steering cover & will launch in 1st week of Feb 10.
We are looking development of Boot mat & will start development for the same.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Comments: Hi, I own a Punto MJD. I saw the genuine accessory list on the website. I am wondering why Fiat is not providing Boot Mat and Steering Cover as accessories. I feel these 2 are important accessories and lots of customers are waiting for it. Can i have update on this please.

Ravi.
Thank You

Its great RSM!

Atleast you got a reply.

Seems FIAT is very keen serving the customers & something should be done to break the brand image.

Customer handling is a necessary part of maintaining good customer relationships ... and it is nice to note they way they said no!!

Hehe, aditya, it looks you have some marketing expertise.

Yes you are correct and looks Fiat has hired some good marketing guys who knows how to say no.

 

[cooldhaya]

Their reply is sweet and perfect. Seems like you have to wait till feb then!

 

[350Z]

....Or We should call it other way, They very well know how not to say NO and keep the customer happy as well. Nonetheless, Let us see the steering cover he was speaking about but RSM, You can get a huge variety in market at reasonable $$.

Yes i saw some outside. But currently i have dropped the plan. So when i will visit showroom next time, i will check there and decide.

BTW, i have finalized the seat cover deal to 8.5K finally.

 

[cooldhaya]
