    This video was incredible. A couple of things to note for those attempting it. DO NOT be fooled into believing those two bolts, can only be done by a right angle drill. The column will drop and slide back by 6-8 inches with only 4 bolts. The bolts are easy to see, just shine a flashilight along the column. There are two brackets on the rear bolts. Just remember or photo their orientation. A 13mm socket and 2-3 different size extensions make this removal and install a definite thing to consider as a time and money saver over investing in right angle tools. I was able to drill and tap the bolts using a normal drill and was able to see! making this a no-brainer in my opinion. I used two m8 1.25 x 20 bolts (hardware store) with a washer on top to replace them! You dont have to go to the dealer. Also, two other points. in order to get the key out with the paperclip trick. make sure the paperclip hole lines up with the little divit in the plastic around the key otherwise it will never come out. I had to refer to MiPiMeRu video to learn this. Also IF YOU HAVE A STANDARD, you will have a two prong plug leftover on the new aluminum ignition. This video and MiPiMeRu does not address this. DONT PANIC, that extra plug is only used for Automatic transmission vehicles

    OMG that was the greatest DIY video of all time! I ordered my part and I have three days to start this process before the part gets here. I have made a list of tools and such and I feel totally ready to take this on. Even the little details abut how the clips work and how the switches pull off are in amazing detail. I'm buying a right angle small reversible drill from Harbor Freight, so I am not even that worried about the drilling and easy out of the screws for this job, after seeing your explanation. I know it has been 2 1/2 years since you posted this, so I'm not sure if you will ever revisit this and see my comment, but from the bottom of my heart I thank for your taking the time to do this. You are a real You Tube gem! Thanks!

      Yes, this is a great video, but save your money on the drill. I did this repair (watched a ton of videos and read lots of comments) and you don't need that. Simply tapping the security bolts with a small chisel or pick will loosen those bolts--and they come out easy.

    RIGHT HAND DRIVERS NOTE - Firstly, thanks for publishing this, terrific effort. Couple of points I'd add. 1. Removing the steering wheel control module for right side drivers is a bugger to get to the rear harness as we can't see it or get a screwdriver to it, I gave up, left it in and just push the rear module clip, then front one and let it hang 2. the two Security bolts, as per @Cody Toppel's comments I removed the 4 column bolts - I had to remove a bit of plastic underneath to view/access them from below and for the rear left side one push my extension between where two of the plastic cowlings meet. I then used a pointed punch and hammer to unscrew them, quite easy really. 3. Removing the key barrel from ignition unit I used a 1.5mm allen key, much easier than paper clip. Cheers guys.

    Just wanted to say thanks for the great video-I completed this repair today and it was SUPER satisfying to save the giant pile of money this would have cost. Also wanted to echo what a few others have said here, that you definitely don’t need to take the steering wheel apart at all to do this. It’s a little tricky to feel around for some of the little release tabs in the back, but well worth it to save a lot of extra work and the potential danger of the airbag going off if the residual charge isn’t drained!

    Absolutely solid video! Easy to follow and well explained. I was able to negotiate a DeWalt drill to pilot the holes in the steering bolts. An impact driver ended up being the winning tool after an hour or more of trying to break the bolts loose. Nothing seemed to get any traction prior. Also, in my case the key would not turned to on position and so I needed to drop the cylinder from the steering column in lieu of being able to pull the entire assembly. To do this remove the wiper and blinker arms to gain access to the slots where the ignition housing clips in.

    There's a lot of differing comments about accidentally turning the cylinder to off and having to buy a second one after realizing the mistake. If you don't mind losing the steering lock, just angle grind through the black metal plug (it was virtualy impossible for me to drill into), pop it out and remove the spring and indented silver cylinder-plug. Now you're back in action and learned your lesson.

    You can pick-up a right angle attachment for your cordless drill/impact drill for about $20 at the local big box hardware store to make drilling out the shear bolts a little easier. Other videos show using a paper clip to remove the lock cylinder, but the bobby pin shown here and a pair of needle nose makes it much easier on the fingers. Hardest part for me was removing the front clip on the control module.
    So far, we are through the disassembly stage and are waiting on the $56 locking cylinder to arrive by Amazon tomorrow. I elected to pick up M8-1.25 by 20MM socket head cap screws from PepBoys versus the OEM shear bolts.
    I expect to have my son back on the road in his '08 Jetta in no time. Thanks Cameron!

Huge savings over the dealer. I did screw-up putting the steering wheel back with the marks lined up. The ESP OFF warning light wouldn't go out and the wheel wasn't quite centered when I was driving straight. Once I realized my mistake and put the steering wheel on right, the warning lights went out after a short 20mph drive.

    Thanks to you, I just finished replacing this part on my cousins 08 Jetta! Just a few things I had to do different:
    06:00 I couldn't for the life of me access that red locking tab to remove the connector. I left that connector on and was able to push in the tab at 06:35 with a pocket screw driver from behind, just like how you accessed it with your finger. So I was able to disconnect that connector after the steering module was dropped.
    07:45 I had no bits or extractors for those scews. I ended up using a sharp thin chisel and a hammer. Just had to make sure I was chiseling in the direction you unscrew the bolts. It was a little tedious, but they both ended up breaking loose. Also, the good thing was the fact that they threaded out easily with a small pick as soon as they broke loose.
    Other than that, I followed you step by step. Once again, thank you!

    Fantastic video! This is a great point to start ! I managed to remove the lower cover and the ignition lock without removing the steering wheel, on a Touran. Tilting the steering wheel 45degrees, I got access to the 2 screws for the lower cover. I removed the servodrive controller and then the ignition lock. I followed the advice of ​timateMassacre​ and I easily removed the cover with the fabric piece and using a battery Dremel with 90° adaptor, i drilled a hole in the screws, 3.2mm if I remember well, I hammered a Torx bit inside, I put some WD40 and after 1 minute I tried to unscrew and they went out flawlessly. Now putting a new ignition lock I will use 5mm with hexagon bolt and not the original ones. Thank you.
    Edit: I forgot to add that I had to make a cut on a lower cover, from the ignition key to the front of the car, in order to extract it, otherwise the key will prevent this.

    Let me first say that your video is actually really informative and clear, and my comment is in no way intended to disparage your video.
    However, It is actually 10 times easier to remove the ignition housing than the way you are doing it. First off, don't bother taking the steering wheel off. You can skip that step entirely, and you don't run the risk of death from an airbag blowing up in your face if you fail to drain the capacitor. Second, Don't bother disconnecting any wires.
    From 6:29 on is actually all you need to know for how to take the lock housing off. Do exactly what he says until you get to the shear head bolts. On those, just use a center punch to unscrew them, that's it. You hammer the center punch counterclockwise until its loose, then you physically lift the lock housing up to relieve pressure on the bolts and you can just use the center punch to unscrew them.
    Lastly, just imagine you took the time to take the steering wheel off, then you figured out that you didn't need to. You then proceed to flip the car off. Do exactly that, and with two middle fingers (because they are your longest fingers) just reach up behind the tabs on 9:17 and loosen the housing. The ignition cylinder drops out and you remove the antenna coil connector on 9:24.
    Ta-da. 5 minutes of work.

      @@srcodling It took me 5 hours to try to carefully drill and extract. I found it was most important to ensure you're drill in the center of the bolts. The simplest technique may be to use a chisel and turn the bolts out. Once you break them free, they turn easily. Another technique would be to drill through the bolts (not worrying about the threads). This is because you are replacing the housing which has new threads along with new bolts.

      Wish I tried that. I bought an extractor and spent literally 5 hours trying to drill them out. If you drill, and you don't have a smooth surface to start with, use a Dremel tool to smooth off the top, and make sure 100% you're drilling in the center. Otherwise you may drill through the threads and you can't turn the extractor because it is going down the threads. Next time, I think I'll use the Dremel to cut an edge on one side, and use the thin chisel technique with a hammer to try to loosen the screws.

    I just learned that the key is two parts. The driver and the enabler. The driver is referred to as the key, so the key is a dummy; all it does is turn the ignition switch on/off the last part the enabler is the fob. The key separates from the fob. The chip is inside the fob. So if you ever needed an entirely new key, you just use the fob from the original key and the immobilized will not engage.

    I took the bolts off by using JB Weld to glue an 11mm nut on top of each bolt. Since it sits at an angle, I used the sockets to prevent the nuts from sliding off the bolts as the JB Weld cures. After 24 hours I used a socket and wrench to unscrew it. Just be sure not to get the glue on the socket that's keeping the nut from sliding off.

    My key would not turn to on position. Once you get the housing removed to remove lock from housing turn the key and hold tension on it while tapping on wheel lock with hammer. Locking lever inside will not fully depress until both holes line up. I also left clip in place while re-installing into new housing. My OEM ignition housing was hard to turn at first. Some people say not to but I had to cycle the housing, with a flat head, thru Acc, On, and off a few times to free it up. Just put it back in the ON position before re-installing the lock. Pay attention to the position of the start switch too.

    Très bonne vidéo! Il y a moyen de faire ça beaucoup plus simplement par contre. Commencer par utiliser une petite clipse à papier tourner la clé pour en ligne et le petit trou avec le point sur la pièce de plastique dans laquelle la clé est insérer. Entrer la clips dans le petit trou,pas besoin d'appuyer très fort. Vous allez entendre un petit bruit quand vous allez avoir débloquer le mécanisme. La partie extérieure du barillet va sortir très facilement.En suite enlever le volant de la voiture. Défaire simplement les quatre vis sous la colonne de direction. Elle va descendre de 14 pouces. Ça va être très facile de percer les deux vis. Pas besoin d'outils particulier. Ensuite un simple tourner à gauche pour retirer les deux vis. C'est un travail d'environ 1.30 a 2h max.
