What Have You Bought Today?

Just finished fitting my new head unit and its touch screen so volume is controlled by touching the screen. Not so easy as turning a knob.
I’m looking at steering wheel upgrades for my poverty model just to control the volume.
Can you not get a control to go with your head unit that clips to the steering wheel? I know it's not as rock n roll as a wheel, but would free up some cash for extra bling elsewhere!
 
£741 worth of highline Grille, bumper and foglight fitting and coding, oh and while I'm here pop one of those steering wheels on will you?!
Mike, Lewis and Rachael were a credit to Professional Retrofits in Nuneaton, I would heartily recommend them. Excellent service.
Just ordered a pair of Travellin Lite fog lamp leds, one I had was dodgy, so another £45 on top of too much!

Where's this from bud? I feel like i need to upgrade the wheel in mine and that looks spot on!
I was having some work done today at Professional Retrofits Nuneaton, they had about a dozen steering wheels on display for the T range. 6.1's 6's and some 5's. Between £200 and £250 with your old one in PX. Plus the tax of course, but fitted and coded free! Certainly worth a call, 01455 697797 . Nice folk!
 
Here you go , not flat bottomed wheel but is the correct one for you. And it has cruise on the wheel!

MFSW
Thanks Kev. Would my airbag of my startline wheel fit that steering wheel mate?
My vans not got CC so would just be the buttons that control the stereo I’d need working.

Needed it so I could make sure there's enough room to store in it in the kitchen pod I'm (slowly) building for my caravelle which will have a fridge and sink in it.

Oh yeah, I also bought an Alpicool AD50 fridge a couple of weeks ago. :D

Yes I already have an Alpicool TW35 fridge freezer, but I liked the idea in your original post of an Alcohol fridge.

Yeah, fits straight on. That's the wheel I put on my startline. You would need a new loom for the wheel. Our Chinese friends will do you one for little over a tenner.

Cruise control, your either a balls deep guy or your not! Why have a MFSW with non working buttons!?!?

Why what would it take to get CC working?
Surely more than just the steering wheel??
Mines is manual also
 
fitted some more stuff in the last week or so as follows

side bars
wind deflectors
dynamic repeaters and wing decal
secondary front door rubbers
rear spoiler
subwoofer
re wired front grill light so it works from keyfob

@The Flying Scotsman I think the same post on the sales forum has fuelled our search for a wheel :laugh:

I've just bought this for the princely sum of £80. I think I just need some buttons and a loom to get it working (though not sure when I get round to it, I *really* must start the electrics!)
Going by what I’ve been picking up lately info wise on the steering wheels I don’t think your airbag will fit that mate.
 
Uh oh really, I thought the two pronged version was the one to go for. That said I haven't consumed the mega thread on the subject just yet!
It was post #5 by Pauly on this thread that’s made me think that
