Great! Nice lighting effect to know that the heating is on.
What LEDs have you used? Do you have images of the process?

Sure!

I bought ten of these: click

I simply soldered two of them to the + and - inside the steering wheel.
Then I taped the LED strips to the side of the airbag. That's all. :)

I'm sorry but I didn't make any pictures. I'll make some, the next time I remove the airbag. I had to do it in about 0 degrees Celcuis, outside.
Making pictures was not in my head, sorry.

The lighting effect is more beautiful on your steering wheel, Slavik steering wheel is out of date ... 😁 🤣

Good solution for your heated steering wheel ... but Slavik is going to cut your balls for violating the CCE casing. :mrgreen:
