Following on from this thread, https://www.t6forum.com/threads/steering-wheel-upgrade.737/ I thought we could have a dedicated thread for showing off our upgraded steering wheels.. I bought a plastic flat-bottomed Passat MFSW off eBay for £60 and for £300 had it re-upholstered by CCSW. I...

There have been a couple of posts from the searches I have done but none seemed to result in any positive outcomes or updates. 2018 T6 Kombi LWB HighLine - had the van broken into late last year, smashed the tailgate window and made off with a few £k worth of bikes - all insured so no worries...

With hindsight, I’d have just driven hundreds of miles to one of our resident specialists and paid them, but I’m now too far in having bought stuff myself and am now trying to DIY it to the point where I am satisfied with the sounds vs the money I have spent. I wish I hadn’t even started this...

Hi can anyone help? I am looking for a T5 / 6 heater matrix? The basic mechanically controlled version. Actually just need the white nylon disc which controls the air blend on the left (passenger side). There are full systems available on line but are expensive to buy and ship; or has...

Hi. I know this has been discussed a million times but does anyone have the part numbers for the black caravelle or shuttle door cards for a t6.1 2020? Thanks in advance!

Hi I've brought some led rear lights from eBay I've read on here that I'll need to do some extra wiring for both sides to work, is there a link to how to do it and are they just plug n play otherwise?

Hi guys, Sort of done to death, but I couldn't quite find the answer to a probably fairly obvious question, so here goes... I'm planning on swapping out my Startline front and rear bumpers for some Highline versions fairly soon, and I was wondering if there were any additional parts I might...

Fallen out of love with the carbon.. thinking of changing and would love to know what you guys have upgraded to in your T6.1.

Hi, the panel van comes with a basic, naff black plastic door release handle on the inside. I see the Caravelle, California etc have a nice aluminium one. there doesn't seem to be a separate part for this to be ordered as its all plastic welded and comes as part of the door card assembly. has...

I have a T6.1 highline with the light grey plastic dash and door cards. It looks pants and will be even more so when I have the seats done in tan leather. Does anyone know what options there are to change the plastics? I’ve seen the thread on changing T6 for caravelle / shuttle bits. Is this...

Hi On my list of things I want is a flat bottom steering wheel,my van is 16 plate 102 t28, all the wheels I've seen and been quoted for is for mfsw, can I get one without this as I've not got it on the wheel I have now,I've seen a few t5.1s without it and it looks good to me , obviously it has...

Hi All, I've a BCM ending 087 and want to upgrade to 090. can this upgraded BCM come from any VW or does it have to be off of a Transporter? I know that I'll need to match the end letter for the keyfob frequency etc and copy across the settings in VCDS etc, just curious of the T5 / T6 had a...

Hello So I'm wondering if anyone has carpet lined their door cards? I used to have a lovely t4 and it was made of carpet pretty much. My t6 just feels too vany with these plastic cards. I'm going to sound deaden the doors soon, so while the cards are off, I'd love to carpet if its possible. Has...

Does anyone know or has anyone fitted T6.1 door cards into their T6, i know the doors the same so mounting holes should be fine but will it interfere with the dash ? Thanks

Hi, I'm new to the forum, picked up my 6.1 Caravelle last week! As I think is widely agreed, the default audio leaves a little to be desired, especially as I have come from a daily 6 series with the Harman Kardon upgrade. From what I can see, the Signature Audio package from Absolut5 is likely...

Just about to purchase these for my edition, I take it they are straight swap?
