Decided to change the steering wheel (again) and go for the smaller airbag bag.

So, another day....another steering wheel.
As you will have seen, I upgraded the original T6 wheel for a golf R mk7 wheel. I love the look of this wheel. But, i figured, i'd love it more if it matched my interior....well, that's what I told the mrs
Went for a forged carbon wheel with purple stitching, leaving the brushed silver gold centre with buttons.
Then changed airbag cover for new leather with matching purple stitch to my gear gaitor and gloss black badge.

Update 27/04/2026
we went away last week on a 4 day trip around anglesea and norrh wales. While away, the frint door speakers just went off, leaving only the a pillar tweeters.
I raised a post on here asking for help, it came down to faulty speakers.
Today, I went to my local HellFrauds and got some vibe optisound 6+ door speakers and tweeter kit, made for the transporter.
A few hours later, they're in and better than ever.

2 weeks ago, while in the peaks I met a Toyota yaris down a very tight lane....the yaris won, leaving me with 2 kerbed n/s wheels 
It almosts ruined the trip, so I decided to do the right thing byhaving them refurbed buying complete new wheels! When it happened, a big F*** SAKE was exhaled, to which my mrs replied "just get new wheels!".
Happy wife, happy life
