Officer1151, I have been trying to install my Wheelskins cover for the past two days. I noticed that mine has about a 1/2" gap (at least) all the way around. You do not seem to have any gap on yours. Am I doing something wrong or do I have the wrong size cover? Mine is size "C" supposedly for my 2010 HHR. Also, how did you get the area under the big bottom spoke to lay flat? Mine bulges, again maybe because the cover is not wide enough?

capp002, It is not a matter of patience, the two sides of the cover do not meet together like your photo shows. I have spent hours and ran out of lace (they are sending another roll). Did your two halves of the cover meet? Mine has at least a gap of 1/2" no matter how hard I pull it tight. It will not stretch enough for the halves to meet. ??? I think I read somewhere the Cobalt steering wheel is smaller? Thanks!

I just had a very positive experience with Rob at Brand New Auto. I purchased a Wheelskin steering wheel cover from him on ebay and although it showed as being the right size for my 2010 HHR it was not wide enough or long enough to fit perfectly. Rob contacted Wheelskins and they asked me to measure my steering wheel. I just received a replacement cover and it will fit perfectly. Awesome customer service!
