Symptoms of fault
Steering wheel rubber thumb grips worn, melted, damaged, disintegrated or split spoiling the look and feel of the steering wheel.
The problem
The rubber steering wheel thumb grips wear / melt ruining the look and feel of the steering wheel.
It is very common for the thumb grips on the steering wheel of Renault Sport models to deteriorate and ruin the look of the steering wheel and the vehicles interior as a whole. The original thumb grips are made from a poor quality rubber and deteriorate quickly when toughed or exposed to sunlight / heat. Until now the only solution has been to replace the steering wheel for new at vast expense, unfortunately the grips on the OEM steering wheel just deteriorate again.
Vehicles affected
Clio II Mk 2 Renault Sport RS 172 1999-2006
Clio II Mk 2 Renault Sport RS 182 2004-2006
The solution
Fit our replacement thumb grips and improve the look of the steering wheel instantly.
Our replacement grips can be fitted extremely easily and will improve the appearance and feel of the steering wheel instantly. Molded to the exact shape of the original part these grips are a perfect fit. Simply cut away the old grips and glue our new grips in to place, please check out our instructions and videos showing how to do this, there is no need to remove the steering wheel to repair. Our grips are molded from a tougher rubber than the originals, we made a conscious choice to make these from rubber as they maintain the original look / comfort of the original part which plastic or carbon items at a much higher cost fail to do.
What you’ll receive:
2X Thumb grips, 1 for each side of the steering wheel.
