Abstract

A covering assembly for the ring portion of a steering wheel which comprises a cover layer, a hooking member and a hooked member. The hooking and hooked members are fixed along opposing longitudinal sides of the cover layer and will fit together in a locking relationship with the cover stretched about the ring portion. The steering wheel is provided with a circumferential groove in which the hooked member is inserted and the hooking member is received by the hooking member after the cover material is wrapped and stretched around the steering wheel so that the cover fits tightly thereabout.
