1. Do you re-use the original OEM leather or do you get new pieces shipped in? Asking cause my OEM leather is getting pretty worn out for when I do this mod.

2. Do you know how the Alcantera would react from continued use? i.e. sweat/sunlight/etc.?

So far I've been using OEM leather...pretty much each wheel has been in great shape since I've been doing the swaps. Only one has been damaged and i replaced with alcantara in the sides. If need to be I can replace with new leather. That isnt a problem. As far as the alcantara holding up. I would imagine that it should last for a long time. It isn't really on a spot where it gets rubber too too often as would on the base of a seat for example. I've messed with some pretty crappy materials before and this stuff feels pretty decent quality, so i think under normal driving conditions it should last.
