Wheel Vinyl
You might remember a while back I was messing with the vinyl cutter in work doing templates of the wheel. As I've had the day off work and I was going to be changing the brake pads I thought I'd try the wheel on to see what it looks like on the car

Meguiar's Hot Rims All Wheel Cleaner
[align=center]So I grab some Meguiar's Hot Rims All Wheel Cleaner the other day in Halfords as I've run out of dragon breath and thought I'd try something else.

It's done a much better job than dragon breath and any other wheel cleaner I've used so far.

So here's the before and after.

How-to Remove Airbag Steering Wheel & Buttons

[Image: https://www.vxoc.org.uk/Images/rusty/How...heel/1.JPG]

First thing we need to do is disconnect the battery negative cable, so open bonnet and remove negative cover if fitted then using a 10mm spanner or socket undo and remove the terminal and move it out of the way

Astra VXR heated steering wheel
Hi guys, I have a chance of a VXR heated steering wheel off a 2014 Astra which I'm looking to install in my 2011 Astra 1.7 Elite.
Now unfortunately the airbag is missing so does anyone know if I can simply swap the airbag from my Elite into the VXR steering wheel?
Also can the heated part of the steering wheel be connected to work?
Thanks in advance.
