I have seen videos about installing a leather steering wheel cover, where they used a hair dryer to warm it up. What are other ways to warm it up, that you have used?

It will match the top of the door panels, visors, and the headrests. Here is a picture of it.

I ran it in the dryer for 25 minutes on the delicate cycle on a shoe rack. It went on very fast and easy. It's probably not leather and is a little darker than the door panel tops, the visors, and the headrests, but I'll keep it in for now to see how it holds up.

Here's a picture of the steering wheel cover next to the top of the door panel. There's a difference in the shade of both,but have a similar pattern.
