Ford didn't offer a leather wrapped wheel in my '95 LX. I replaced my regular wheel with a new wheel from Ford. I considered the SVT wheel, but preferred the thicker SE steering wheel. My car has an Atlantis Blue interior, and the SE wheel is a perfect match. The lighter blue(compared to the SVT ) would give you a nice contrast and a unique look. I don't think Ford offered a black steering wheel in the Contour, but they did offer a few different shades of blue, any of which would look decent. I have driven over 70K+ and the wheel still looks new. The dealer charged me thirty bucks to install the wheel.
