Great result! Few days ago, did the same with Gulietta. Although my approach was simpler. Thanks for video.

Nije lose iskreno ali samo da je malo tamniji taj materijal pa da se podudara sa airbagom i tapacirungom bilo bi top

Could you please do a video of adding aftermarket automatic headlights and wipers on the giulietta if possible

[@pietervandermerwe7454]

Well done. Looks 👍🏻

[@arcgarage]

Thank you! Cheers!

Hi, this looks much better. But I have a question: was there a reason for not removing the old leather completely (you cut away only the 4 pieces around the stitches)? Now the steering wheel is a bit thicker than it used to be.

[@arcgarage]

Yes, I was thinking about it, but decided against it. First reason is that I thought the rim would be too thin for new material, and the second problem could be that by removing old leather I could damage the foam material underneath (it could come off with old leather).

Supernice!👍

Great video!
I have a video request regarding the steeringwheel. Do you know how to retrofit a steeringwheel with radio controlling buttons (and make those buttons work with the radio), in to a 147/156/GT that doesn't have those controlling buttons on their steeringwheel? I'm looking for a video for this, but there seems to be none. My 147 does not have the cables already prepared in the dashboard.
It would be amazing if you could make one! I'm sure a lot of people will be hepled by that.

[@arcgarage]

Thanks, you need to check if the wires (on the car that has them) go to the body computer or straight to radio. If they go straight to the radio all you would need is the clock spring, then from clock spring I would run them straight to radio

Hey!
Could you please make a video about the windshield dashboard vent replacement? The one what serves for defrost the windshield on the dashbord, near to the window (not the center airvent for passanger)
Mine craks a lot and I want to remove it and put a tape on it, but I dont know how the remove
I love your videos, help me a lot for diy car repair! :)

[@arcgarage]

Thanks for support, I will try to cover that

Odlično izgleda. Pomislio sam da se ne bih smio usuditi probati ovo bez iskustva sa šivanjem/obradom materijala, ali kažeš da si i ti uspio bez ikakvog iskustva tako da možda vrijedi probati. Da, dugmići na volanu i rukohvati na vratima (i dugmići na vratima) su slaba strana na 147. I kod mene je sve izlizano.

[@arcgarage]

Hvala, da bukvalno nikada nisam ovo radio, slazem se

[@macak989]

ja sam takodje ovo radio bez iskustva i nisam skidao volan, mada mi deluje da je bolje da se skine volan a nisam ni skinuo staru kozu vec preko nje. treba samo strpljivo raditi a nije komplikovano.

[@arcgarage]

@@macak989 Nije, a definitivno je vredno truda

[@adnanbecic5503]

Super izgleda
Može li se samo dio reparirati ako je par končića izvučeno?
I još jedno pitanje,kako na giulietti podesiti da se retrovizori sami zatvaraju i otvaraju?Nedavno sam vidio da je samo od sebe to proradilo pa sad ne radi 😃

[@Filip_Ilicic]

Ovo cu morati napraviti, svaka cast

[@arcgarage]

Definitivno vredno truda

[@Filip_Ilicic]

@@arcgarage svakako, i jos usteda od 100€ najmanje 😂

[@arcgarage]

Vidio si da ljudi traze 150e za reparaciju najmanje

[@Filip_Ilicic]

@@arcgarage vidio sam 150€ da naprave isto kao ti, a sada kada vidim da navjerovatnije i oni uzmu kod kineza za 30€ i naplate 120€ po tome svoje ruke. Malo dobre volje i sve se moze sam, zahvaljujuci tvome kanalu pola alfe 147 sam rastavio sam. Samo nastavi tako

[@arcgarage]

Tacno tako, hvala ti na podrsci

[@kokotyson]

Nice job man, turned out GREAT! I am definitely gonna restore the steering wheel on my mother's alfa because its way worse than your was. I wanna ask- in order to not have bulge, you cut the steering wheel in 4 places, by doing this, the new leather has a place to stay, am I right?

[@arcgarage]

Thanks man, yes, that is exactly it

[@AutoRevisieOutOftheBOX]

nice

[@arcgarage]

Thanks
