Default Close-up picture of CR steering wheel

I am looking to get my wheel re-stitched and would like to send the shop a close up of the stitch pattern to verify that they can reproduce it. With the black thread on black leather (base model), it is hard to get a good photo that clearly shows the pattern. I am hoping that the contrasting yellow stitch on black leather (CR wheel) will produce a better image of the stitch pattern. Do any CR owners here have such a photo, or are any willing to take one for me? Thanks!

If you are having someone re-stitch a wheel for you, have them use a classic hand stitch pattern like I got done on my wheel. It uses more thread than the typical v- stitch pattern of the oem wheels, so it shows up better and I think it is a stronger stitching. Using a different stitch pattern adds more thread over the typical v-pattern, click on the pic below for a closer look.
