Mercedes-AMG steering wheel refurbishment - ideas?

[MonsterMax63]

Does anyone know where I can have the steering wheel on my 2018 W213 E63S refurbished to OEM standard or better? I've had this car from new and its the one part of it that has not lasted well. The stitching on the alcantara on the right hand side of the wheel at the 2 o' clock position has started to come lose. Bizarrely, I rarely touch that area of the wheel (I have a 10-to-3 grip), so it doesn't really see much wear. I've had four AMGs prior to this one and its never happened before. However, its happened twice on this car, which has otherwise been brilliant. It surely points to an MB quality control issue. It was replaced on warranty in 2021 and rather predictably, they don't want to know now. Very keen to take £3100 off me for a new one, surprise surprise.

If anyone knows a good place where I can get this done, please respond. Again, OEM standard or better is what I'm after. Otherwise, I'll have to pay Mercedes their money which I can do, but wary about this happening again a year or so down the road.

Any ideas welcome.

Guys, thank you all very much for your great suggestions - looks like Royal have it! I've sent in an enquiry and hopefully should hear from them soon.

Although some wear and tear is to be expected, it shouldn't happen on a car that cost me >£100k new. With your suggestions, hopefully I can solve this problem.

Thanks again.
Bill

Just a short note to thank you all of you who recommended Royal Steering Wheels - finally got round to taking my 2018 E63S to Aylesbury this week and I really couldn't be happier. Brilliant job, great service and the wheel is perfect, as the pic shows. Thanks again guys.
