Android auto and Samsung phones problems!
Yep, I get regular disconnections, I wonder if the previous owner wasn't gentle with the usb socket, and maybe that needs replacing. I use high end cables, huawei mate 20 pro. mirrorlink doesn't work at all for god knows what reason

Virtual Cockpit Retrofit with Columbus and Canton
So I've been assembling a list of parts for the retrofit, while looking for the multifunction steering wheel buttons to make sure I had a 'view' button, I managed to find a £600 steering wheel (the flat-bottom dsg version that's heated , and including the multifunction buttons with 'view') on ebay, at eur130. offered eur100 and got it!! after paying the post-brexit 20% duty, after currency conversion that's £103. I would have had to pay around £70 just for the view button! happy days so now I get a heated wheel retrofit while I'm at it!

What have you done to your Superb III today?
Converted rear lighter socket to dual quick charge usb with switch, following @JR RS example. In fairness, if I had seen @digifish simpler solution, I would have gone for that, but I had already ordered. See the gandalf thread for details of both those options. And yes, I know it needs straightening, but my knuckles are grazed enough for the moment

The Alu pedals and footrest from a golf r mk7 are perfect fit. Takes little time, just soaked the accelerator one in hot water to make the rubber more flexible to squeeze on. My example is RHD Skoda dealer told me there was a skoda option for RHD, quoted me £120 for pedals and footrest, then gave me a set of pedals without footrest for a superb mk2 after waiting weeks... AliExpress 30-something quid including postage and customs taxes which are prepaid upfront, job done. V happy. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mLER5ix

Are they all the same? I wonder are the aliexpress ones as good quality or same original parts as from anywhere else?

Reversing camera install
That big lump you've circled has 3x black plastic twistable things that secure it. you can turn them to drop it down, then I used a rubber mallet to pop ot the boot handle from the inside.

TV Tuner in Superb Mk3 Retrofit?
That doesn't seem right to me, that's an antenna for mobile reception. At least in the UK Digital TV (Freeview) Frequencies are in the 470Mhz – 850Mhz range, so the aerial should v cover that band. What you've linked is not marketed as a TV aerial

Yes it's the system that checks for air movement inside the car when it's locked. The advice above is good 🙂

What have you done to your Superb III today?
Correct, so there's a closed warning at the top of the dual carriageway (Chicheley roundabout), and for those that continue on, a checkpoint at emberton asks where you're off to. It's possible to cut right at the church and get around the back of town if you know how to get about.

What have you done to your Superb III today?
They've ripped up the high Street as the potholes at the pinch point outside the Swan were getting out of hand, so the high Street between the square and souls is closed! I got the plate straight from DVLA, I never buy plates privately. I have a knack for finding interesting ones that noone else has discovered. I put BA53ARD on the 5er..

Legally spaced the rear plate and put it on 19" VRS wheels. Much as the 20s were forged and technically brilliant, the style was a bit marmite. Legally spaced the rear plate and put it on 8j 19" et45 octavia VRS wheels with pirellis. Much as the 20s were forged and technically brilliant, the style was a bit marmite, these are a lot more oem obviously (even though I don't believe technically ever offered on the superb)

Like a foam mattress that's delivered vacuum packed, you have to unpack it before it's useable. It's packed so that it's smaller to transport, but not useable while in its packed / compressed state. This is the exact same theory, applied to digital files. Windows has built-in software to "unzip" (unpack) zipped files, just double click on the zip file and it will unpack the contents. A zipped file may contain many packed files inside it.
