Here's what I installed. It's a 14" Grant wheel and hub, to which I added a Triumph center logo from Ebay. The hub is supposedly for the TR7 but was too close to the cowl cover so I had to mod the cover a bit: not sure if this was a problem with the hub or with my setup. Anyway, I like the look and it was pretty reasonably priced.

Thanks: it's a Grant 764. It's got a nice, fat grip too, so it falls well to hand. This one's vinyl but if you spend a bit more they have a leather version. They also have the same style in 12", 13", 14" and 15" so lots of options.

My choice is the standard "mid era"? steering wheel, leather covered, with the square depressions filled in with padding , (no holes, cutouts or screws for me; the smoother the better!

Very nice indeed and rather different [:)]

But I will stick to my old 13" Moto Lita wheel in the FHC for a while ...

And the even older Nardi wheel in the DHC ...

1980 TR7 DHC (my first car, now restored and back on the road)
1981 TR7 FHC Sprint (better known as 't Kreng)

Mongo dunno. They were like that when I got the car. Must've been done the same time as the seats.

Can't say I especially care for the blue, but it was all done to quite a high standard. There are even nice embroidered Triumph logos on the seatbacks.
