Here you, as a customer, get an insight into who LZ-Customs is and what we do. Not least how. LZ-Customs started in 2018 as a hobby project where parts were produced on a small scale for personal use, friends, and acquaintances. We grew tired of the poor selection and, not least, the quality that was available in Norway. We decided to do something about it! LZ-Customs has extensive experience in machining, casting, and technical design, passed down through several family generations. In 2018, we made small parts from leather, alcantara, and utilized 3D printers to solve various issues that arose. Over a few years, the demand

PRODUCTION METHOD


  • STEP 1

    All our steering wheels start as original wheels. We ensure that the most important elements of the wheel meet the required safety standards. Many manufacturers cast UNORIGINAL wheel bases and hollow out the wheel grip to save materials. No warranty can be provided in the event of a collision. This is life-threatening, and we distance ourselves from this production method.

  • STEP 2

    Once the steering wheel has been checked and passed the safety inspection, we can begin. We remove the old leather, glue, and padding underneath. Most steering wheels are constructed with a metal rod in the center and with pigmented vinyl or rubber/plastic composite. We also remove this.

  • STEP 3

    Now we are left with the base itself and the iron rod that runs through the shape of the steering wheel. The steering wheel is placed in a mold that forms the shape of the wheel. In this mold, we use polyurethane. This is the same material used for high-quality bushings in cars. 2 casting rounds are used. (casting, cleaning, primer, casting).

  • STEP 4

    When the casting is finished, the casting residues must be removed and the steering wheel must be prepared for further work. It is very important to sand away any irreYELLOWarities and deformities that may have occurred during casting. Here, sanding must be done, and the material should have a slightly rougher surface.

  • STEP 5

    NOW heating wires can be installed in the steering wheel. This is done using wires that are 0.1mm thick. This is a mesh that must be micro-soldered and adapted to the new shape the steering wheel has taken. The connection for this will be original. Once the steering wheel heating is installed, the heating wires must be checked. We do this using a thermal camera.

  • STEP 6

    Next on the list is to install padding on the steering wheel. This makes it more comfortable to hold the steering wheel and provides a comfortable grip while driving. For contoured steering wheel sides, we will use less padding.

  • STEP 7

    All steering wheels are unique, and each steering wheel has minimalist differences as everything is handmade. Each and every steering wheel receives a custom leather cover according to your wishes. In this process, glue, heat, and patience are used. If you, as a customer, have ordered an LED display, it will also be installed and customized here.

  • STEP 8

    We only use high-grade Japanese carbon fiber. Layer by layer, epoxy is applied with a 7-hour interval. The steering wheel is placed on a special stand that rotates to ensure the epoxy is evenly distributed between drying times. Sanding and polishing are a critical part of this step. Once this time-consuming process is complete, 4-5 layers of clear coat are applied. Everything is also wet-sanded for maximum gloss.

  • STEP 9

    The steering wheel undergoes the final quality check. Any irreYELLOWarities are adjusted, and the steering wheel undergoes a crash test. This step is for your safety. Once this is completed, any LED display must be coded and adjusted. We want you to have a quality product that lasts year after year and provides you with driving pleasure every time you get into your car.
