Part: Steering wheel

The author of this video teaches how to remove and replace the steering wheel on a Volkswagen Polo, but the same procedure applies to similar models from the same manufacturer. First, as we can see, remove the central part of the steering wheel, which also contains the airbag, and disconnect the relevant connectors. After this, take a correctly sized socket and proceed to unscrew the central bolt of the steering wheel. At this point, simply extract it from the steering column and then follow the reverse process to install a new steering wheel.
