On this video I'll be upgrading my old crusty, musty, dusty and rusty steering wheel to an updated one from a VW Golf/Jetta/Polo/Tiguan/Amarok Mk6 to Mk7 models. I chose this steering wheel because firstly, it looks good and everyone deserves an upgrade. So here's a video on how I did it, thank you for watching.

Enjoying your video, I want to upgrade my mk5 GT , which steering wheels options do you recommend??

@OverideZA 4 месяца назад

Thanks man, I appreciate it. On which steering wheel would I recommend? I'd say the new Golf 8 GTI wheel would look good, but it depends on your finances and your preferences

@gabtan632 8 месяцев назад

hi mate i was wondering if this can fit into a vw scirocco? the twin charged version. Is it possible to plug play?

@OverideZA 8 месяцев назад

Hi man. Yes it will fit 💯, about plug and play I can't be certain. The wiring is a bit different but I'm sure this way that I've shown how to wire the steering wheel will work for the Scirocco as well, knowing that the scirocco is based on the same platform as the Mk5s.

I have a 2007 Jetta Wolfsburg edition I want to upgrade the steering wheel I also want to have a wheel with steering wheel controls what wheel should I get for it?

@OverideZA Год назад

It depends on what wheel looks good for you and one which is within your budget. The Golf 7 R and Golf 7 standard flat bottom looks good too, those are the ones I love. You can also fit a VW polo steering wheel too

Hi. What socket are you using to get the wheel out?

@OverideZA 9 месяцев назад

Hi, it's an M12 multispline socket. It's a tight and exact fit.

So im looking at putting a golf mk6 mfsw in my 2k caddy 08 plate. Currently have no steering wheel controls . Do i just get the mk6 golf mfsw, And a new swcm With part no either 1K0 953 549 CD, Or 1K0 953 549 CH. Is this correct? Really appreciate any help and advice

@aagronz День назад

Great video , i trying to upgrade mine same car , its just idk if it’ll work with the dashboard, do you need to code anything?

@OverideZA День назад

Thanks man. If you don't want to have multifunction steering wheel buttons then yeah, it will work.

@user-jf7zp8uw1s Год назад

can the airback pop out if you do this wrong?

@OverideZA Год назад

No. If you get the airbag connectors wrong they won't get a signal from the crash sensors and therefore won't pop out

@DarkAL1912 10 месяцев назад

i put golf 5 steering wheel in my vw caddy is not working butons and horn wheel is so strong go right or left put both hands to move steering wheel and in dashbord see wheel problem why fix it

@OverideZA 10 месяцев назад

The buttons won't work if your Caddy never had a MFSW before. For buttons to work you need a steering wheel control modules that supports multifunction. Upgrading a steering wheel shouldn't affect how your steering wheel works. If you are turning it with the car off it'll be hard but with the car on there shouldn't be a problem.

@deckscontrol 9 месяцев назад

I have upgrade my old steering wheel of my old VW T5 Caravelle to a very similar steering wheel like yours (take from a VW Caddy 2017, no multifuction) I have the same problem, horn no works and airbag lights on at dashboard; would i contact to you for help me please? I dont know exactly what i have to do. Thanks for this video

@OverideZA 9 месяцев назад

After upgrading you'll need to rewire the new steering wheel to the configuration of your old steering wheel. Yeah you can contact me. Hit me up on one of the social media platforms I've listed on the profile.

@tayyipozdemir3937 11 месяцев назад

Hello, I installed a Golf 7 steering wheel on my Golf 5 like you, but the horn does not work, as I understand from your video, there is an operation from the key socket, I would be very happy if you could help.

@OverideZA 11 месяцев назад

Hi, you need to take the connect the two cables from the new steering wheel on the same slot where the Original Mk5 wires for the horn are from. Then on the new steering wheel, make sure that the brown (-) wire is connected to the steering wheel and the blue/white wire must be depinned/or merge another wire which will be power (+) for the horn, and this wire must go from the ring around the airbag onto the slot which provides power to the horn.

@jamisson81 4 месяца назад

Nice man i get a golf 6 no mfsw en i deed the same but the horn en mfsw buttens do not work i put a nieuw swm but i get stak

@OverideZA 4 месяца назад

You need to re-wire the horn wires and program the car to recognize the new MFSW Control module

@user-mj5mn6nl1w Год назад

which one of control unit's will you use for this steering wheel?

@OverideZA Год назад

There are various steering wheel control modules that I can use to go on with this steering wheel. The most important thing is that the control module must be compatible with the car. So I'm leaning at any control module with the part number of 1K0 953 549 CD, 1K0 953 549 CE, 1K0 953 549 CF or 1K0 953 549 CH. Those are the highline control modules and will work with a Golf/Jetta Mk5, but for tried and tested modules use the CD/CH.

@stermeister Месяц назад

Hey, I just got the same steering wheel. Wiring for horn also goes on the buttons connector, so I imagine that the will not work on mine either. I didn't understand which pins you connected the horn. Also which steering module did your car have?

@OverideZA Месяц назад

The blue/white connector goes in the position of the original horn wiring. The black wire is the negative for the horn, the blue/white wire is the positive. The module I had was the low line, which didn't support multifunction steering wheel control.

@stermeister Месяц назад

@@OverideZA Okay, thanks for the quick reply. Is there any way to contact you (telegram or something?).

@Zejakov 9 месяцев назад

Wait so I can switch the old design steering wheel from my golf 5 plus 2006 with this new model without any real issues?

@OverideZA 9 месяцев назад

Yes you can do that, the only thing you'll need to do is re-wiring the horn but anything other than that is not going to be a problem. However, if you are upgrading from a non MFSW to a MFSW you'll need a SWCM

@OverideZA 2 месяца назад

When it's different car makes I think it'll be a bit challenging but yes it is doable. Just find out the diameter of the steering wheel you want to upgrade to and see if it will fit your car with no clearance issues. But yeah it is doable

Did you get the lights to light up on the steering

No, reason for that is that I didn't install a MFSW Control Module as it was expensive. However I'll be making another video where everything works, stay tuned.

@bunster4322 5 месяцев назад

I see you are using a Sony 1 din radio, I was thinking doing the same because i Like how There's a Spot for things to put there, My question is, How is it, Do you like it or are you planing to swap it for something else?

@OverideZA 5 месяцев назад

Yes I have the Sony A416BT and I'm so happy with it. I had an accident with the car I did this steering wheel swap on, I got another one and I tried a VW Harman MIB Radio and it was great but it only played 2 front speakers only so I got another Sony A416BT radio for the new used car I bought again, so I really love the radio and for sure the space underneath there is also another thing I prefer having. I really doubt I'm gonna swap it for anything else.

@@OverideZA one more thing now that someone actually replied, i know it's stupid, but the controls on the steering wheel work with the radio? I have a passat b6 with multifional steering wheel, and I'm wondering if it needs a special modification. Or can you change the track and volume?

@OverideZA 5 месяцев назад

@bunster4322 no, mine don't work because I had to upgrade the SWCM to the one that enables the steering wheel buttons to work but I didn't because it's expensive. But some say it does work with the steering wheel, you just have to set the radio to the corresponding buttons.

Yes they fit, all steering wheels from Mk5 Golf to Mk8 Golf does fit on a standard Mk5 Golf. So in case you want to upgrade with a GTI steering wheel, go ahead and do it. It'll fit perfectly.
