Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 жов 2024
- First job on the list with the T5 build series is to upgrade the steering wheel as the one on it is super tired and worn out, I do need to make the inside a little more comfortable for the kids as we are having a day out in London to see the Christmas lights. Can I get it done in time?
Let’s find out

Aside from the great content and the very watchable presentation, just wanted to say how much your editing skills have come on 👏👏
Thank you mate really appreciate that 🙏👍
Love your vids, I’ve been following for a while and thanks to your caddy vids Ive bought a ex British Gas caddy to do Touran seat conversion and all the other cool stuff that you have shown us how to do on your videos. Without your vids showing how to do mods in such detail I wouldn’t have had the confidence to even attempt half of it, so thanks for the effort you put in to teaching us, keep up the top work👌
Sorry for the delay mate very nice I like the colour 👍 glad the videos are useful and thank you for the kind words 🙏👍
Cant wait for the Christmas trip 🥳🎅🎅🎅
Just got back from a weekend away, first video I’ve watched all weekend, hope you trip went well and was enjoyable 🫡🙏🙌

Hope you and family have a great Christmas trip to London mate keep up the good work
Great to see a van build from scratch, keep up the great work
Great video pal. I use a screw just screw it in a bit in the centre and just pull and job done👌👍
Great vids bud, done loads of T5/6 etc and the best method I found for those stubborn trim clips is a wood screw in mole grips, push in and pull sharp, always gets them out 👍🏻
Epic video mate looks good dude nd have a great trip
Good to see your trip out after watching the build series. Great to see your family having a great day out.
Thank you mate appreciate that 🙏
Looking good again 👍👍
i just use a trim removal tool to remove those clips, justt slot between head of fastener and base and the pretty much fall out. ive been sound deadening /insulating/ ply lining my caddy this week,. Enjoy your London trip with the wife n kids mate, great channel this, i love it.
Great video Nathan
Nice vids Nathan,vw family
Great idea to paint the plastics, got a T5 myself and door cards are horrible so think al get them painted 💪🏻
Wow ! Nathan those door cards you painted with the combination are fabulous ! You cracked it again son ! Cheers Nathan & merry Christmas to you and your family cheers BRIAN
Great progress on your T5 project, coming along nicely.👍🔥🔥
Mate that was a good tip regarding the dot and the line when changing a steering wheel!!!
Have a great day tomorrow!
All that effort was well worth it!

Thank you Nathan for another cracking video. Great tips and tricks. Those clips looked a right nightmare but you soon sorted them. Have a wonderful time seeing the London Christmas lights with your kids and the Mrs - ah ye.
Enjoy your trip, make sure you secure that Christmas Tree, don't want it falling on anyone. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, you're making some great memories for the kids. Don't forget to pay the ULEZ and Congestion Charges. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Taking great shape, enjoying this, always something to take away. Thanks
Brilliant content 👌🏽
That's a blast from the past ripspeed....
Haha 😂 most boy racers had something ripspeed back in the day 👍
Have a safe trip Sir Nathan😊
Great vid mate! 👍
ahh yeah shes getting there 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great job bud
Looks great 👍
Loving the t5 build, have a great trip 🎉
When you go back and spray glue in your insulation you best use high temperature spray glue because summer temps because the standard spray glue to melt off and your insulation falls. Before you final board and insulate you should run some wiring and add rear touch on/off ceiling lights and wall mounted reading lights on stalks with built in USB sockets for the kids.
Dodo deadn will transform the noise levels. Do the door cards too and it’ll sound a whole lot more solid inside. Worth the money if you spend time in your van.
My method for the trim clips is to use a pair of circlip pliers. Wedge them in between the inner and outer and then start to unscrew. The taper part of the pliers wedges s the outer towards the board and jams it and also pulls the inner outwards. Advantage over a screwdriver is that is grips two sides of the clip not one.
Use a screw and a vice grip to just pull those trim clips out. No visible damage and makes easy work of removing them.
@dcgoride Agree easy as, wood screw, a couple of turns and pull...so easy.
You are fantastic to watch 👍
Thank you mate super appreciate that 🙏 sorry for the delay
Ah yea simply remove the 300 trim clips, 😂 they like using them things! She’s coming along nicely mate, top job
Live ur vids keep up the good work marry crismas to u and the family
Hey bud sorry for the delay thank you and merry Christmas to you to sir 👍🎄
They do a deep side step with a light that goes over your wood floor if needed pal. Can have a light in there too.
I did have like 5 different steering wheels in mine and I am not done yet. Maybe I am a sucker for these different wheels, who knows. Additionally I have removed the steering wheel multiple times when I added the cruise control. At the moment I have a B7 passat steering wheel with all the multifunction buttons (I have a facelift T5 which came from the factory a similar wheel but with plastic version without the multifunction stuff). I am looking for an actual golf 6 Gti or scirocco perforated wheel that is compatible with the van in terms of the mfsw buttons and looks absolutely the best in my book.
BTW the bag is not going to blow in your face luckily however when you leave the battery on and do this like that it'll give an airbag error later on you need to clear with a scantool. Also when you do the passenger side side panel with the airbag off switch it will do the same, so whatever you do related to airbags it is recommended to disconnect the battery to save some hassle.
Good job Nathan . I put that mark five steering in mine bud had to switch wiring loom round too . We have the same is issues bud . Keep up the great work mate . Things like to try us but we love finding the solutions . I have a few over the Christmas coming I think with the tailgate switch (electrical locking ) 😂😂 hope you and the family have a great crimbo lights Cruz 🤙🏽🤙🏽❤
Great content as usual Nathan, kids are are going to love this, have a great trip and merry Christmas to you and your family and keep these videos coming ❤
My advice with the trim clips on VAG vehicles is a Stanley blade to lift it up, then slide a fork in and pop it up 👌🏽
Hey Sam thank you I’ll give that trick a try next time I get a stuck one 👍
Also take a look at fir tree clips when re panelling there mint mate
Loving it 😊👍👍👌
Great work mate loving the build not far off.
How do I get one of the DTE stickers for my caddy 😂
Loving it 😊
Don't forget the Xmas hat Nathan
Since the T5 makes such great content, you should sell this one to me and buy another for more context 😂😂😂😂😂😂 👍 lovely work and great attitude as always. Merry Christmas to you and yours
Hey Carlos sorry for the delay and haha 😂 I shal bare that in mind mate thank you 👍👍👍
Best car ive ever had peugeot 505 GTI Estate 7 seater Candy apple green ,those windows look so mint realy kool .there were some BMW Bonnet and boot badges chinese on ebay ,they said BNW ,I SWEAR ,£2,99 a packet off 2 .
Wood screw is definitely the way to go, I’ve welded a wood screw on the end of an old screw driver to remove those trim clips, just twist in and pull.
Hey Richard I’ll try that trick next time thank you mate 👍
Great vid but you can get a one big piece of ply for the roof, I did with mine and it looks loads better. Try a local wood merchants. Keep them coming and enjoy your Christmas trip. 👍🏻
Great vids chap ahh ueah😊😊😊😊😊
Coming along nicely. If you can get hold of a genuine VW rubber floor for the back it makes a hell of a difference to the sound deadening I found. Pricey if you buy new but converter’s usually sell them on when their converting the vans onto campers. Easy to clean with dogs and kids too
Literally watching your London xmas tour vid on xmas day whilst you responded haha
👍
Vans looking great 👍 did you try the wiring loom under the passenger seat? Common fault in the transporter.. the fuel garage wire snaps. Happened to me when I took the seats out! 🙄
Good evening love your T5 videos. Noticed the towing eye. You need to extend it to accommodate the 5.1 front. Don't know if you were aware. Regards Martin Blackwell.
Hey bud sorry for the delay, one person did mention the towing eye needs work to fit. I didn’t know that so thank you 👍 rather know before breaking down and not having one 😂👍
You can pick up panels the same as stock for about a tenner each from a van fitter. Much easier and nor expensive than doing it yourself.
Vans coming on well pal. Could you not adapt the top centre seatbelt cap/cover thing from your original double front seats to work on your back seat? Might soften the blow slightly
Ah yeah 👍
Takk!
Mate, I wish I knew about the T20 trick for those trip clips. 😫
spray silicone spray all over the seat belt will make it free up and not as tough to pull out
Why don’t you get that blue window protection film to protect your paint.
Hi pal, love the vids! Quick question, did you manage to solve the faulty fuel guage? If so please tell me how! Thanks😅
Hey bud sorry for delay the latest video I go into the fuel gauge 👍
Hey how are you
There is nothing wrong with using house insulation to do your van at £44 for 12ft you can’t go wrong with it. At the end of the day insulation is insulation. It made me chuckle when you got the hammer and chisels out to take the last clip out cos I would have done that to all of them😂😂. This van is coming a long very quickly
Hey Conrad sorry for the delay yes I was impressed with the stuff I bought 👍👍 ah man some of them come straight out and some needs brute force 😂👍
Trim clips use a wood screw. Push and unscew.
you need some carbon fibre a pillars.. like wut I got..
Ho Ho Ho , merry cwistmath , ah yeah
😎👌👍
Ah yeah
Hope you all have a wonderful time seeing the lights
Didn’t go quite to plan this week
GEFTGWD 🙌
Whats are you doing on the glass
You dont have to answer it - you just did on the video (i thought it was a razor blade)
Trim tools or side cutters 😂
I counted to ten and ripped the panel off in a huff.. those clips are evil..
Have you ever seen the guy online with the bmw E38 he wants to change the badge in his steering wheel so he goes at it with a screw driver while he is sat in drivers seat he starts prizing the bmw badge out off the centre and boom screw driver through cheek teeth gone glasses gone .its funny but sad .
Shit. Not sure I wanna see that!
have you discovered 0000 wire wool for cleaning your glass? i hope i,m not telling my granny how to suck eggs. (ps i comment reg for the algo)
I havnt I’ll take a look at that thank you 👍👍
oh yeh, Nathan did i tell you someone bubbled me to DVLA unfit to drive after 44 years,mad no points no bumps ever never been stoped by the police anyone can do it online on the gov site , ive looked .
When’s the next video on the t5 he drive to London coming.
