- One of the things I miss about the MK6 R was it's steering wheel. The Xuji wrap adds some extra grip to the stock wheel.

Dude, TY!! This is the Best vid yet on how to do it!! The image quality on the video is superb too....very helpful to see exactly where & how it's done...😊😎 Thanks again for posting.
Very well done, thorough, and great background musical selection, appreciate the work you put into this
Thank you sir!
Bro thanks for the video 😅 I just an alcantara cover 6 months ago and didn't know how to use it. Appreciate the quality of the video and the explanation 👌🏻
Well Done! One of the best I've seen and you didn't even remove the steering wheel.
Did this on my Mk6 R last year, def gives nice look and better grip 👍🏼
loved the music!! great video !
Looks good, how long did it take you.
Is it possible to install it without removing the paddles?
i wish someone would come out with a basic slip-on cover for these wheels
Great video,,,just wondering how did U tie and finish the last stitch for each section?
Thanks Tony. It's pretty hard to explain. I tied it off starting at the 6:15 mark by cutting the string and separating the connection from the needle. From there I just did a normal double/triple not. Try searching the internet on how to tie off, probably much better than my explanation.
Can you still get this wrap? I was looking the other day and I just can't seem to find it on Aliexpress
Thanks for this video! 👌💥💥
👍👍
Excellent production................can you do my MK7 :). The question is how much time, Ill scroll down see if any input.
😂
Looks great! ✅👌 where did you order it from?
Is it better to use 2 strands of string?
The string is quite thick. Still holding up 3 years later. Thanks for watching
is there enough thread to do every hole?
Yeah they gave me enough thread for the whole project 👍
I was gonna sell this, but this is just too much work for buyers :( god damn nice review
it pain in the s just by watching the "making of"
Nice… so how long did it took to Finnish it ?
Wow old video. Took me a while especially with the recording
Thank you
This is Wayyy!!! Too much work
Yeah man the process can get tedious
That exposed stitching produces a horrible feel though where your fingers sit. The design inc original VW design is actually pretty poor - on other cars, the stitching is tucked in so the wheel is nicer to hold.
You forgot to use double sided tape
Nah Max, installed just fine. Double sized tape would be a nightmare to remove when I sell the vehicle
@@ilimit last weekend I installed the leather cover in my car using double sided tape and I feared that without tape the cover could slip
I don't think the tape can leave residues, you can use alcohol to remove everything
@@maxneves good point but the 9-3 position should hold the wrap in place. I’m afraid the alcohol might ruin the oem steering wheel

I used the tape when I did it and it ended up damaging the OEM leather upon removal after about a year. Peeled the leather finish off the wrap.
"When you are ready 2 put the paddles back on after everything is over - This is how you gonna do it"
And you show absolutely nothing about chucking the paddles back in?! What the hell.
Hahaha!
@@ilimit what is funny anout it? I wanted to know that!
laughing is a strange response in this context
Haha!
@@SetraFX CZcams it mate there are literally loads of vids showing how to remove and replace the paddles.
That looks super cheap hahaha. Waste of a day!!!
Thanks for the view
Bryce Czirr 🤣😂 ok bud👍
@Bryce Czirr no I'm busy
Bryce Czirr yeah we’ll go with that.
@Bryce Czirr 🐠
looks really bad
What's your reason of watching the video if not to check out the wrap and consider doing it yourself? Then whether or not the video helped you, still gotta sht on the content creator right? Lol.
@@ilimit
but it really looks bad. I watched other YT video, and it looked much more professional.
You have puffs , which is not nice.
