We can see how simple it is to install a leather steering wheel cover on the steering wheel of a Volkswagen Golf VI, by doing the job ourselves. Some manual skill is required.

We can find it, for example, on Amazon with the code B0CMM9ZPDX at the price of 39.97 euros, including delivery. We shape it on the steering wheel and start sewing it with the thread provided with the leather.

We recommend carefully reading the attached instructions before proceeding, but in any case, we start by starting from one of the spokes, proceeding from left to right, and passing the needle through the stitches, in order to create a sort of "cross-stitch" that has the advantage - in addition to being very cute - of tightening the seam.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
