    I am doing a little clean up on my 69.5 Maverick interior the steering wheel pad is not in to bad shape but the foam is rotting and starting to open up in the center at rear I would like to find a replacement what else was this wheel used on?

    Many 70's Fords. You should be able to get a reproduction 71-73 Mustang pad.

    Make sure you find a wheel pad that used the horn ring like yours.

    69 mustang uses the exact same pad but has a running horse emblem in the center. Also 69 fairlane, falcon etc use same pad.

    To my knowledge, that particuliar horn pad is not reproduced. If anyone does find or knows of any company selling that horn pad (which has notches on the back side lower portion for the horn ring) please share any info on any company selling them.
