So my steering wheel trim decided to start seperating today, I'm looking for fixes that people HAVE done and had good results with that have experienced the same issue. Not really looking for what might work, I can think of plenty of things. Looking for a product that has worked for others thanks ahead of time

Mine cracked into pieces and we used RTV instead, in 1988! LOL

I hate that wood ring! Mine's not seperating or cracked, but when using the heated wheel that wood doesn't heat up like the rest of the wheel and stays cold.

I put some epoxy on mine, but I didn't mix it right so it took like month to become fairly fixed it stays on now but would come off again if I pulled on it hard enough, i would recommend some well mixed epoxy then wrap it with some of that blue tape that can be taken off a few days later and not leave a sticky mess, I used zip ties but they weren't very comfortable on the fingers
