Draw a circle the size of a steering wheel and make holes for your phone and your hands, draw another circle and do the same but don't make any hole for the phone and then add some cardboard between both wheels and glue them together like this

I basically attached an empty tissue paper roll (tissue paper cardboard and stuffs) to the back of the steering wheel with the help of glue

I basically took an empty cardboard box, opened it, cut one side short and taped it together so it has 3 straight sides and 1 slant side

Put It Together

Open a hole the size of your steering rod on the slant side of the dashboard and fix your steering there, it should look like this

Design It
