Auto Upholstery - The Hog Ring - Carlex Design Custom Mercedes-Benz Steering Wheel

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz Zetros Desert Edition is a big, brutal six-wheel-drive cargo truck that militaries use to transport equipment — but that doesn’t mean it can’t be luxurious too. Polish automotive trim shop Carlex Design recently got its hands on a Zetros, and wasted no time in wrapping its cabin in hand-laced distressed leather.

In addition to the gorgeous steering wheel pictures above, the custom Zetros features hand-stitched map pockets, wrapped and laced dashboard, three custom-trimmed seats and a saddle-esque headliner. The whole affair is both rugged and opulent at once.

Carlex Design explains:

“All the inside plastic components have been covered with the highest quality patina leather. This way, we’ve obtained a nice Vintage climate, just like in the Indiana Jones movies. The cabin was meant to be both; raw and neat. The everlasting interior is ready for thousands of adventures waiting just ahead!”
