    Thanks for this, I just changed mine out in under 10 minutes! £25 for a Golf MK5 wheel, and gone is that old block steering wheel 😁

    I bought one with no buttons. Restored the leather and the plastic covers with black plastidip. Looks so good. Thank you for the Info.

    Nice, you can get blanking plates for the buttons cheap as chips.

    Was wondering if this would fit as i found a cheap one that’s immaculate! I seemed to end up here from Gdubz 😂 cheers! Just bought my first T5 converted vans before not VW. Driving it home i noticed how Dub Vanz kept 👋🏻 or flashing me so i guess drivers all flash at each other.......(and the lights) very friendly 😃

    Great swap over, maybe for the button area you could make some carbon fiber or fiber glass blanking plates 🤷‍♀️!!

    @iiiiiiicurtisiiiiiii 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice little upgrade! I wonder what would be needed for the buttons to work? Im guessing the squb. But then again youd need an adapter for the After market sterio! Finally got myself a van now too! 🚙

    • @SpyderLEE
      @SpyderLEE  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah a pain in the ass. Would need a compatible head unit and Would need coding in to the van too.

    Great video. My 2004 t5 has the same original wheel and I want to change it. How new can I get if I only want the airbag/horn buttons? Worried about wiring..

    • @SpyderLEE
      @SpyderLEE  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Aaron Nuttall not sure to be honest but I’ve seen them with the mk7 flat bottom wheels so assuming it’s the same swap... maybe.

  • @MrWollocks
    @MrWollocks 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    What about the other wires? Just done it but got no horn! (On the van) or if connect the two wires to the terminals I get a constant horn. No pun intended.

      Hi mate, changed my T5 S/Wheel today. Followed spyders video swapped air bag loom as video. but got 2 wires left for horn brown and a white/black 1.Any idea where they go?

    SpyderLee are you in Yorkshire or somewhere else in the north of England? Btw made me laugh when you said steering wheel has been done on the piss. This a term that is normally used in the building trade for something that is bent or not level😂

      In Hull had a handyman come and make good a light switch that was recessed badly, amongst other jobs. He had a go but it wasn't great, so I asked if he could improve it because it was still on the piss a bit. He lost his shit and had a right go!
      I didn't mean anything by it, thought that was just the lingo these northerners use. Apparently not!
