Central locking

[Octaviadavef]

Hi all

I have a standard key door locking system with my Octavia and what would be required to change the central locking to a two button folding key fob and what parts would be need to change to do upgrade the central locking any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

Thank you all

Thinking about what you may need I'm not sure it would be worth it. Lock mechs, window motors, door looms, window buttons (if not electric windows already), key fob to match, possibly window regulators, and then get it all coded with vcds. You may find that list is shorter if you have power windows but to be honest it sounds like a world of pain to me. Oh and you may need new modules in the dash also. I may be completely wrong and apologise if I am,sure someone may put me right, never heard anyone who has done it though.

Hi

As you can see in the description, I have Octavia SLX from 2000. It came with standard 2-button remote control central locking key. I replaced it with 2-button folding remote lock key and it was easy job. It cost me around 18€.

I bought brand new folding remote key with uncut blade (complete key electronics inside, cost for about 13€) over ebay (from china), took the immo-chip from the old key and put it in the new key. I got the locksmith to cut the blade on my new key (cost 5€). After that I just paired a new key for remote locking with the car`s CCM and that`s  all. Now I have brand new folding 2-button key. Of course I assume that you already have a remote locking enabled.
