Horsham VW T6.1 Retrofit with OEM Golf Mk8 Heated Steering Wheel |

Horsham VW T6.1 retrofit with OEM Golf Mk8 heated steering wheel, digital dash and Smart Track iMOB GPS

Adam made the trip from Horsham, West Sussex, to bring us his VW T6.1 for a full suite of retrofits—and we delivered upgrades that make this van feel like it rolled out of the factory with every extra. 🔧🚐⚙️

Ever wanted your van to feel like a top-spec factory build? That’s exactly what we achieved with this Horsham VW T6.1 retrofit. From integrating an OEM Golf Mk8 heated steering wheel to installing a full digital dash and Smart Track iMOB GPS tracker, this van now blends comfort, tech, and security in one seamless package.

What We Upgraded on Adam’s VW T6.1

✔️ OEM Golf Mk8 heated steering wheel retrofit (customer-supplied wheel)
✔️ Digital dash retrofit for a modern, high-clarity display
✔️ Smart Track iMOB GPS tracker/immobiliser installed for enhanced security
✔️ All components fully coded and integrated to behave like factory fit

Why This Horsham VW T6.1 Retrofit Stands Out

We don’t just fit parts—we make them work as if they were installed from day one. The heated steering wheel integrates with the T6.1’s systems flawlessly, including multi-function controls and heating logic. The digital dash offers a crisp, modern interface that transforms the driving experience. And with the Smart Track iMOB system, Adam’s van is now protected with Thatcham-approved GPS tracking and remote immobilisation.

Integration Done Right—No Shortcuts

Every retrofit we carry out is coded and adapted using advanced vag retrofits tools like VCDS, VCP, and ODIS. That means no warning lights, no glitches—just smooth, OEM-level performance. From adapting the CAN gateway to ensuring communication between modules, every detail matters. This level of precision is what separates a proper retrofit from a quick install.

Comfort While You Wait

While we worked on Adam’s van, he made the most of our customer lounge—free Wi-Fi, hot drinks, comfy seating, and a view of the workshop. Most retrofits like these take a few hours, so whether you want to relax or work remotely, we’ve got you covered. Prefer to stretch your legs? Take a stroll through Higham on the Hill or grab a bite nearby.
