To add to this, for parts that have both a wrl and STEP model, if the
wrl model is enabled there is a checkbox in the STEP exporter to replace
similarly-named files, which then uses the same-name STEP for the
export. That's the easiest way to export STEP while WRL is enabled for
the display.

You can manually adjust it on the scale of KiCad, or you can edit your
file to make that scale
You can also create a file to inline another wrl file, and then apply
the desired scale, example
Transform { translation 0 0 0 scale 0 0 0 children [ Inline { url
"file.wrl" } ] }
4.) There seems to be a bug with 3D VRML models from cadquery. I'm not
yet sure if the one to blame is KiCad or cadquery, but I submitted a
bug report that should hopefully lead to some proper diagnosis and
finally a fix.
I comment already, I found that it is a problem with the triangle
winding orientation of the model.
This should be fixed on the model side.

You can't (or shouldn't) convert it, because VRML is a non-CAD file
format. Have a look at:
