Your factory steering wheel was designed to be inoffensive. The Taupe Taipan wasn't.
Full core replacement, hand-stitched leather, flat-bottom design. Every button, airbag and control carries over exactly. The cabin looks and feels transformed from the first drive.
What makes it different
| Full core replacement — not a cover A complete steering wheel, not a leather wrap or slip-on cover. It feels like it came from a premium factory option — because it's built to that standard. |
| Factory airbag retained — always Your factory airbag transfers directly into the Taupe Taipan using the original connectors. Horn, cruise control and all existing buttons remain fully functional. Nothing is lost. |
| Hand-stitched leather — flat-bottom design Premium leather with a tactile grip that improves the longer you drive. Flat-bottom creates more leg clearance on entry and exit, and gives the cabin a more purposeful, modern feel. |
| Plugs straight into your factory column No cutting, no coding, no rewiring. Bolts directly onto your steering column using the factory connection. 30 to 45 minutes start to finish with basic tools. |
| Built for real-world use Reinforced internal core. UV and heat resistant leather. Factory-grade connectors. Built for daily driving, long touring trips and off-road use. |
