  • In this video I'm going through every step I took to swap over my old steering wheel for my new one. I encountered a few common issues along the way such as trying to find the springs to release the air bag and also the snapping of some crucial plastic sections. Every issue I encountered I've also fixed, so watch the whole video to find out exactly how I did it.

    Good stuff, this video 💪🏻 My Zed started to honk the horn randomly when turning right, so had to dismantle the wheel to get to the horn switch assembly. This showed well how to get the airbag off.

    Got my wheel back.
    It's a must modification in my opinion
    The car feels proper now at least from a steering perspective

    Thanks a lot, you helped me get those stupid airbag clips off after failing for an hour...

    Awesome video. Thanks so much. I got my wheel out in no time however I did break a couple of clips on the plastic trim but I think it'll be ok. Thanks again. Cheers, Aaron

      Yep those suckers will snap easy. Plenty of araldite will get them stuck back on with no probs, just make sure they're not wonky because refitting them when wonky will cause them to snap back off. You're better using an epoxy glue rather than superglue because superglue is brittle and snaps, whereas the epoxy, I found, was stretchy

    excellent vid, very thorough and a great help. I'm about to do this, why did you remove the spoke covers before removing the wheel, wouldn't it be easier with the wheel removed?

    • @jamandjarff
      @jamandjarff  3 года назад

      That's right, but I sprayed the trim before deciding to change the wheel I think

    hi there, i have the same model z4 as you. Im interested in purchasing a oem steering wheel with the multi functioning buttons and was wondering if it is actually possible to retro fit that steeing wheel on this model? Currently my steering wheel doesnt have the multi-fucntioning buttons so im wondering if it will actually function?

    • @jamandjarff
      @jamandjarff  3 года назад

      I'm not too sure as I haven't done this - best checking the forums to see if anyone else has done it (if it can be done, they'll have done it) Z4Forum is my go-to

      It isn't an M car, and I'm not a fan of sticking M badges on non-M cars. Plus I just wanted to use the existing wheel.

      the M steering wheel is thicker and more comfortable.
