Volkswagen California T6.1 Heated Steering Wheel Retrofit in Bay Leaf Green
This Volkswagen California heated steering wheel retrofit came with a twist of style — and a splash of Bay Leaf Green. This T6.1 rolled into our workshop looking sharp, but left even sharper thanks to a custom steering wheel retrim with green stitching, a premium Alcantara and perforated leather combo, and a fully integrated heated wheel system that works just like factory. 🔥🟢🛠️
Ever gripped a cold steering wheel on a frosty UK morning and thought, “There’s got to be a better way”? This California owner did — and now they’re enjoying toasty fingers and tactile luxury every time they hit the road. From the first touch, it’s clear: this isn’t just an upgrade, it’s a whole new driving experience.
Factory Look, Custom Feel
This steering wheel was retrimmed with precision to perfectly match the Bay Leaf Green Metallic exterior. The top and bottom feature luxury Alcantara for a soft, tactile grip, while the side grips use perforated leather for better handling on long drives. And that green stitching? It ties the entire interior together like it was factory-designed — only better.
Tested and Properly Coded
The heated wheel functionality wasn’t just added — it was fully retrofitted and integrated using VAG coding tools like ODIS and VCDS. The heating element is controlled via the factory steering wheel button, behaving exactly like it would in a factory-fitted model. No shortcuts. No warning lights. Just clean OEM+ integration, thanks to our expertise in vag retrofits.
A Real-World Comfort Boost
This upgrade isn’t about showing off — it’s about feeling good behind the wheel. Whether you’re touring the Highlands or parked up in a frosty layby, the heated steering wheel brings instant comfort. The tactile quality of Alcantara and perforated leather makes every drive feel more premium, while the integrated heating adds genuine practicality to cold starts.
