Wished to quickly put some info here

Ur see the following airbag removal tools, the red and black handled ones are no good and won’t work

Need the front T handle tool

Took some pics with the switches removed to make it clearer of where the removal tool hooks onto

Hopefully it may help someone in the future

Hi pete

Indeed, just got the basic radio

Have quickly fitted the D4 wheel, got to put the airbag on, was messing around with the seat and left it off as I was disconnecting the airbag system

After I’ve tested the seat will then refit the airbag Thumbs Up

He's taking that long with this steering wheel mod, I doubt he'll ever find the time for a sat nav install. Mr. Green

Oh well better late than never Whistle

Finally Fitted the new airbag and steering wheel all done

Prefer the way the cruise control is laid out Thumbs Up

Got the new window reg done, but l left the door card off as I wish to retrofit puddle lights


Hi pete , bet that gets expensive / complicated when wishing to add the paddles

Hi

Many thks , really pleased with the results Thumbs Up

been trying to get these bits sorted before an upcoming back surgery , number 4 Whistle

Ordered the new puddle lights I can then see how much I’ve got to cut out of the door card to fit them

Retro fitted the footwell lights, plus with mine being a base model I checked before hand the puddle light wiring was there which it is

Think a dremel will be best to cut the door cards
