VW T6.1 Digital Dash Retrofit and Security in Horsham
Adam made the trip from Horsham, West Sussex, to bring us his VW T6.1 for a full suite of retrofits—and left with a van that now feels like it rolled straight off the factory line, equipped with every premium extra. This VW T6.1 digital dash retrofit Horsham project included multiple upgrades, all fully integrated and coded for OEM-level performance.
Ever wished your van had that extra edge of comfort, clarity, or security? Adam did—and he brought along his own OEM Golf Mk8 heated steering wheel, trusting us to handle the rest. From the moment the van rolled into the workshop, we set out to deliver a seamless OEM-style transformation that would make any VAG enthusiast proud.
Clean, OEM-Level Finish
We began by fitting the customer-supplied Golf Mk8 heated steering wheel, ensuring compatibility with the T6.1’s systems. This isn’t just a plug-and-play job—this requires deep vag retrofits experience, airbag safety precautions, and precision wiring. Next came the digital dash retrofit—a complete transformation of the van’s instrument panel. With a crisp, modern display, it brings clarity and style to every journey. Finally, we installed a Smart Track iMOB GPS tracker and immobiliser, adding a robust layer of security to protect the van from theft or tampering.
Fully Integrated, Fully Coded
Every component was coded using factory-grade diagnostic tools like ODIS and VCDS. The heated steering wheel functions exactly as it would in a Golf Mk8, with full CANBUS communication and steering module adaptation. The digital dash communicates flawlessly with the rest of the vehicle network—and the Smart Track iMOB is properly registered and immobilisation-tested. No errors. No warning lights. No shortcuts.
Why Proper Integration Matters
We don’t just install parts—we integrate features. That means performing adaptations, verifying component compatibility, and ensuring the ECU and other modules correctly interpret signals from each new retrofit. Many garages lack the experience or access to the tools required to complete these types of vag retrofits properly. But for us, this is what we do daily—ensuring every upgrade looks and works like it was built into the vehicle from day one.
Relax While We Retrofit
While we worked our magic on Adam’s van, he relaxed in our customer lounge with a hot drink and free Wi-Fi. Our waiting area includes comfy seating, reading materials, and a smart TV—plus a viewing panel so you can keep an eye on the process. Want to stretch your legs? Higham on the Hill offers quiet walks and a few local shops to pass the time. For longer jobs, like this multi-upgrade package, we always keep customers informed throughout the process.
