  1. Mine's from Feb 2017, just hit 34k so not quite 100,000 yet!
  2. I’ll take a look at HID, and see what I can find! if I went down halogen route, are there any you’d recommend apart from the Philips mentioned above?
  3. I have the projector style headlamps on my Fabia, and I'm looking for new bulbs to replace two factory and two Osram Night Breaker Lasers (failed after 14 months on drivers side). I know LED lamps don't pass MOTs anymore, but wondered if the inspector would be able to tell it's an LED lamp since it'd be inside the projector? Are there any halogen bulbs better than the Night breakers? I prefer a whiter light but I know they typically aren't as bright. I live in an area where there's 0 street lamps so I'm looking for the brightest bulbs I can get away with! Any advise would be great 👌
  4. This is great! Wanted to let you know that second link listing the kit is sadly a scam, so it may be worth editing to remove it! I ordered from there and it's been nothing but hassle, and the reviews online confirm it 😞
  5. My first post in the Fabia forum since moving from a Citigo! I have 2017 Fabia which I've owned since new, but over the last year or so I've noticed that brightness and contrast on the screen start to get worse. I've had the issue for a couple of years now with the screen being unresponsive in the cold, but I'm wondering whether the two are linked given that it's been mentioned that the unresponsive screen could be linked to condensation. My question is, if I purchase a new screen will I need a code or will it just be plug and play as I'm not changing the head unit. Alternatively, has anyone fitted an aftermarket unit into the car and how did that go?
  6. @horkin not sure where you’re based but saw this Fabia up the other day! It’s only on 11k and it’s a 1.2 TSI DSG hatch! Maybe worth looking at if you get a chance - https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202002147322432 Theres seems to be a few sub 9k on there that meet what you’re looking for!
  7. Could you be able to PM me instructions? 😀 the car is out of warranty so no massive concerns there!
  8. Do you know if there’s a way to update to this? What software version this is?
  9. What’s the difference between the old and new interface?
  10. So, I picked up Frankie yesterday thanks to Listers Skoda in Coventry and I've gotta be honest I'm so impressed with the car! It's a massive step up from the Citigo, and tbh I'm liking it a lot. A few lil things I have planned: - Wind Deflectors fitted already! - Boot mat and door sill protectors? - Interior lights to LED - not used standard headlights yet but might change those. - Carista to edit a few little bits and bobs! - Change badges and grille surround to Monte Carlo to finish the black look off! - Possible race chip? these are the things I have planned so far, but it's a brilliant little car! any suggestions or other ideas let me know!
  11. Hey guys, I'm moving up from the Citigo forum as yesterday I placed an order for a brand new Fabia Colour Edition in Rallye Green. Just wondering what worthwhile modifications there are that people would suggest? Cheers!
  12. My car is already the 75bhp engine so I'm curious if there are any gains from that up to around 80/85 :p I've ordered the kit with the big chunky plug and sensor! It is the grey one, it's just dirty because I pulled it out of an old Audi A4 yesterday so I need to clean it :p plus it only cost me a 1 pound because I had to climb through three cars to get to it :p I have one on order, as well at front and back black carbon wrapped Skoda logo!
  13. I didn't explain that well, they're still orange but the glass is clear :P
  14. hey everyone, been a while since I've posted, in my second year of uni so things have been a bit hectic and Mario has been a little bit left out, however this year I'm determined to make him part of my life again! So first of all, all the mods I've carried out: - BBS Alloys refurbished for 20 pound! - MTEC Bulbs all round including white indicator bulds. - Mud flaps - Wind Deflectors - Vinyl Stripes - mk4 Golf interior light - Pressed metal plates, not a mod as such but I like them. - Raised boot floor - VCDS self locking above 8kph - Aluminium sports pedals - Boot light - Parcel shelf opening What I wan't do to next: - Custom sound system - Possible remap?? - Lowering springs - Vinyl wrap internal plastic items like air vents in red. - Auto headlights (kit ordered) My question to everyone is, what else could I do to this little red Citigo? I'm planning on keeping the car for as long as I can, so not that bothered about spending a bit of money on it as long as it makes life easier! Also does anyone have any experience with remaps? I know it's not going to be a massive performance gain at all, but even 88 which is what I've seen one company offer sounds good! For reference my Citigo is a 74ps GreenTech Elegance! Thanks!
  15. So it's that time of year again when all the crazy Skoda owners meet up and show off their pride and joys at the annual meet. Soooo, who's bringing a Citigo? :p
  16. What lowering springs have you used to lower it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Hi everyone! Was curious to see who's off to the rockingham national meet this year in their trusted Citigo to keep the name alive at these Skoda events! Anyone going? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. I would quite happily buy the wind deflectors off of you! I'm in coventry so can collect today if you want!
  19. Yeah I am and one of my mates is too! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Hyphons the only reason I stayed the same size is that I could keep the same tyres! And wizzi I contacted Volkswagen to find out the car they were fitted to and they are from a 1992 Red Mk2 Golf GTI 5dr, how weird is that! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
