I have had my eye on the Autowoods wood grain steering wheel for my '08 Burb LTZ for a while. It was always a want and not a need. Now I was thinking about buying it and their website is no longer functional.

I saw they have an Ebay store but it doesn't show the same wood grain options that their website did. I have contacted them through Ebay because their email address says undeliverable when I tried to email them.

Does anyone know of another company that makes/sells the wood grain wheels any more? I know the spoke covers are still available.

Also, curious if anyone has ever tried to put a Chevy Traverse steering wheel on a Tahoe/Suburban? They look the same as ours and have the same 15" diameter but not sure if the spline count and size are the same. My guess is yes because it makes sense from a manufacturer stand point but GM lists different part numbers.

The reason I ask about the Traverse wheel is because there is one that looks identical to mine on Amazon for a reasonable price. I even verified the part number on a GM Parts site to be sure they weren't just using a stock photo and they look the same to me.

The leather on the top of my wheel has finally worn through and it bugs me. If I can't find the wheel I want then I may have to resort to re-wrapping the leather outer portion and getting the wood spoke covers.

Any help is appreciated. Maybe one of you guys bought an Autowoods wheel and never installed it and it is collecting dust on a shelf and I could get it out of your way... lol

Not interested in the Escalade wood grain wheel? They were easily obtainable when I was looking for my heated wheel
I have considered it but the wood grain doesn't match the LTZ wood grain on the dash. Same holds true for the Denali. They all have there own pattern/color.

Plus the wood ring on the Denali/Esky is known to come loose from the wheel. I really like the full upper and lower wood with the leather sides.

Fixed mine with gorilla glue like 4 years ago, hasn't come loose again
