OP, I know your recommend size is 138. But they have other options like Bonded - Nominal 16 Oz - 4200 Yards or Bonded - Nominal 2 Oz Spool - 375 Yards for example. What exactly did you get it? I like it and I have the same red interior.

Edit: I just notice the OP last activity log was in 2012...

not sure what happened to eddy. you want to use the nylon thread. it might say bonded, get the smallest spool for your color. its tough and will last. thats what we use for our armrest covers and parts, but we use #69. the #138 is much thicker for the steering wheels.

Sweet. I just ordered the 2oz 138# Scarlet color for under $10 bucks shipped. Let's see if I get around to this.

Nice, I'm not sure if I want to "test" this out with my current steering wheel or scoop up one of those newer gt500's steering wheels and replace the white with the red stitching.
