i see everyone removing the clock spring but i don’t remember removing it on mine when i installed my quick release and it was fine, what’s the reason for removal?
I have not made a video on how to wire the horn button. I can look into it and let you know as soon as I can if I figure out how to wire it correctly. Congrats on the new steering wheel.
The stock steering wheel has a sensor that relays the steering angle to the 4WS system so when it's replaced it loses communication with the 4WS because it's not receiving the input from that sensor. Some people just keep the stock steering wheel on because they don't want to lose the 4WS system function. I did read that someone used an HKB adapter and was able to keep the 4WS functioning. I read that the 4WS sensor is not always aligned and that can be fixed if the adapter sits tight enough to the sensor plate which helps to turn everything at the same rate as the stock steering wheel.
I was literally expecting the light to come on after I turned on the car after installing the steering wheel but it never turned on. Weird I know. I looked it up and for some people disconnecting the negative battery terminal for 5 minutes and reconnecting it worked but sometimes it did come back on. Another solution I found was to disconnect the bulb but I personally would not do that and just drive with the light on if it doesn't bother you because at least you know why it's on. If you do decide to put the original steering back on then at that point I would be more worried about it especially if you decide to sell it.
@@automotiveobsession7265 I was thinking about just unplugging the light. I am going to keep the steering wheel and its components if I decide to put it back in one day or sell it, although I have no intentions of ever selling my Lude.
It does stick out a bit more than the OEM steering wheel. I noticed the difference when I went to use the turn signals and I usually keep my hand on the steering wheel while doing this because it's close enough that I can reach but I had to take my hand off to be able to reach it. There are other option s like the MOMO montecarlo which has more of a flat face. At least for right now it's cheaper here than any where else that I looked amzn.to/3s4fc64
Thank you, I recently found out that I may have a bad clock spring so this will definitely help taking apart my steering wheel.
Glad it helped
Really informative, thank you 🙏🏼
Anytime. Glad it helped.
I have the exact same Momo wheel in my EG hatch…love it!! Nice work 👍
Thanks! 👍 It's a nice steering wheel. Nice EG hatch build.
Awesome content as always
Thank you again

I’m getting ready to install my new steering wheel and was wondering if you’ve made a video on how to wire tge horn button?

@@automotiveobsession7265please and thankyou
No I have not. Still trying to figure it out but have not had the time lately.
Fire champ
Thanks.
because I changed it and since then the yellow light has been activated and the 4ws system has not worked

hello good! When changing the steering wheel did you have any problems with the 4ws system?
No my car does not have 4WS.
Hey I just installed my steering wheel on my 5gen, how did you get the airbag light off? Just unplug the light from the dash?

@@matthewgallant3622 That's also another method. Hope you don't sell it or ever need to.
Does it stick out more than the oem one? I’m 6’2 and I already have to sit relatively far to get comfy, so how much different is the new wheel?
