- In this video, I'll show you how to remove the factory steering wheel and replace it with an aftermarket MOMO Tuner steering wheel with NRG Quick Release on a MK4 Volkswagen New Beetle. This should also work. on the MK4 Golf and Jetta.
I love Momo Steering Wheels. It's amazing how something so simple can make such a big difference in the feel and driving experience of any vehicle. I have this wheel in FOUR of my cars!

Such a good vid! Will be doing this on my MK4 Golf but with a MOMO Team 280mm, thanks for the links in the description too!
Awesome! Glad you found it helpful! I have one of those wheels too in suede. I didn't like how the dye on the suede rubbed off on my hands on long drives. I like the bigger wheel. But it the 280 is pretty. haha.
@@rayregnogarage i've had a suede wheel before, it started off nice then it got pretty yuck (it was on a daily driver, and i didn't use gloves)
i'm a pretty small guy and had a miata/mx5 and loved the go cart sized wheel, each to their own :)
i read a couple more of the comments on this vid about the resistor, do you mind sharing what load/size/rating it is?
I just used the resistor supplied by NRG. I’ve used more compact resistors in my other cars because they take up less space in the hub adaptor...but they’ve failed on both my Xterra and Ranger. Integra is still going okay but I don’t drive it much. These are the resistors: 2 OHM Resistors

@@rayregnogarage Beautiful, thank you very much
You're the only one that makes the swap easy without a lot of fluff in the video with good tips to take the original wheel off thank you!
Glad you found it helpful!
What size is that wheel? Great video. Thanks!
No torque ugga dugga
is this legal in Texas? i wanna do the swap on my mk5 beetle
I don’t live in Texas. I don’t know
will this fit a mk7.5 GTI?
the quick release and wheel will. not sure if the adapter is the same. Check the NRG website for the part number
If you would have left battery disconnected /and not rolled the ignition on until you plugged airbag resistor in it wouldn't have tripped the airbag light
good to know. I haven’t looked into how to fix it yet. just been rolling with it not caring. I’ve got VCDS but I’m still learning it.
@@rayregnogarage whenever anything is disconnected from airbag system never roll key forward it makes computer scan system for faults like it does when starting car,I got mine reset for free at shop,it can be done with scan tool if scanner covers airbag system it doesn't have to be done with vcds
@@rayregnogarage it's easier on a straight up scanner
thanks!
Always a good day when theres a new video haha
Ha. Thanks!
I have an 01 Gti with the cruise control on the wheel. Trying to figure out a wiring diagram on how to convert the cruise to the left stalk style. You can buy the Oem stalk for $40. Any one out there that can give me some pointers?
i haven't quite figured that out yet. I was planning to do that on my xterra but haven't cared enough to do it. haha. on my integra, I just removed the cruise control module from the engine bay. hahaha
@@rayregnogarage I might just do that. I don't need it but wouldn't mind keeping iy
@@tynado1173 Ya. I don't really use my cruise much anyway. Haven't missed it too much. haha
Where did you get the plug for the air bag ? So the light is not on?
The resistor comes in the NRG kit. my light is still on. Every car has a different process to reset it and I haven’t gotten to it on this car yet. I’m guessing I’ll need to clear it using VCDS.
@@rayregnogarage I have the vcds how do you clear it?
@@yuvrajpajetta3496 Ah. I haven't tried yet. I still need to do some research on how to do it. But I think I read somewhere to look under the modules or error codes to clear it.
@@rayregnogarage ohh okay thank you let me know if you find out how to do it
@@yuvrajpajetta3496 will do.. will be in August at the earliest. I split time between two different states and that car and I are in different states at the moment. lol
Does the same apply for the passat b5.5? It's basically the same mk4 generation
Ya, I can’t say with absolute certainty, because I’ve never worked on a Passat, but I’d say if it’s not the same it would be super similar. When I’m working on the car, I often find passat videos that aren’t exactly the same but are really helpful. The Germans are about efficiency and it’s not efficient to have a bunch of variance in parts and process, so I’m pretty confident it would be the same if
not very close.
@@rayregnogarage Same :D When i look for things for my passat i search golf videos since they are alot more popular. Thanks!
I have a 2015 jetta is this the same short hub ?
Not sure. Your car is a mk6. Mine is a mk4.
There was no ding 🤣🤣🤣😩
hahah. some cars do some dont. lol
I have the exact same model. Fun fact, only around 2000 were made.
Yup.. special edition. My sister waited a long time for this car.
Only 500 made in manual.
@@johnturpin8826 Nice, I never knew that
Wow. that makes this extra special.
Hey brother, my kit didn’t come with screws for the hub adapter. I got a momo steering wheel separately and that only came with screws to bolt the wheel to the quick release. What kind of screws are needed for the hun adapter??
Just order replacement screws from NRG: amzn.to/2P68Tfa
