New Old Stock Carat Duchatelet Steering Wheel – Authentic Leather Mercedes Upgrade

Offered here is an exceptionally rare New Old Stock (NOS) Carat by Duchatelet Steering Wheel, never mounted and preserved in unused condition.

Produced by Carat Duchatelet, one of Europe’s most exclusive luxury automotive coachbuilders, this steering wheel represents a true period-correct executive upgrade for classic Mercedes-Benz models.

Carat Duchatelet was known for building ultra-luxury limousine conversions and bespoke interiors for royalty, diplomats, and heads of state. Their components were produced in limited numbers and distributed through select channels — making original accessories like this extremely difficult to source today.
