    Hi Everyone. I just bought my first Toyota Prius. 2024 Prime XSE. I got a leather steering wheel cover that I’d slightly too big. Does anyone have a suggestion on altering to make fit or a suggestion on the best one to get for perfect fit? Thanks

    I'm waiting on mine.
    Just recently I tried putting on a sew-up leather cover on a Crosstrek. Couldn't make it work, I felt, with all the smart features of the the steering wheel.
    I had a 2000 VW beetle that I put a sew up one on and it was great.
    For the Crosstrek, wound up getting a slip on 'leather' cover, ie, no sewing. She likes it.
    You have to get the right size. Maybe you can exchange it? They're not that expensive.

    +1 to getting the right size, this cover from Amazon was thin enough at the edges to tuck under the plastic bits of our 2025 Toyota Crown Signia steering wheel. FYI, the cover comes with thread to sew the cover on, but I don't use it because it is made of a slick synthetic material. I get a waxed thread that is thicker and easier to use.

    The Signia has a factory real leather steering wheel already, but we prefer a nice, thick steering wheel.
