Steering wheel question

My new to me 83 Laredo has the steering wheel with solid arms. It is not wrapped. I am trying to figure out what the factory Laredo steering wheel would have looked like. Thanks for any help!

That looks like mine, minus the wrap. Previous owner must of peeled it off. Thanks for the info!

The basic YJ wheel comes with exposed spokes and no leather wrapping. It looks like a Laredo CJ wheel but without any leather and it is a little shallower. The dish of a YJ wheel is under 4 inches and the dish of a CJ wheel is over 4 inches . . . about 3/4 of an inch in difference. You can measure and see which wheel you have.

@Kim Dawson already posted here, but he has wrapped a few steering wheels for me and they have come out great... take a picture of what you have and post it up and we can help you out.
