Bumper off and bolt removed (in 3 pieces). I’ll be drilling the bumper holes on saturday and then running cables to the front bumper. Any chance of someone tipping me the nod as to whether this should go through on the off side behind the washer bottle or on the near side under the battery …? TIA David

Sorry to necro post ........ but, I've just bought one of those (exact same photo) for £133 + vat https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32967569064.html Its come complete - except for the instructions 😞 I've worked my way through wiring diagrams from Erwin and think I have where all the wires need to connect to all worked out. I can't find the route the cables are supposed to take from the PDC controller in the right rear wheelarch to the engine bay and down to the bumper. I have all of the right hand side sill trim removed (fitted a handle type rear camera whilst this was coming from China) and there's nothing visible there except the loom for my trailer electrics (fitted by a trailer company). So I'm assuming it crosses the car somewhere and goes along the left sill ........ I've got one bolt left to brutally extract before I can get the front bumper off to drill the holes for the sensors. Any ideas or suggestions welcome 🙂

Saved my temper today. who the hell hides fixing screws under hooks you need a butter knife to remove.

So …. I’ve just spent a small fortune on a day van conversion for my Caravelle and have been seduced by the idea of the Ampire WSF-400 Pro - similar to the Ghost 2 canbus immobilisers. The thing is though that I’ve managed to negotiate a good deal on a pair of them, one for the Caravelle and one for my Superb II Combi (3T). The Superb II isn’t listed in their compatibility PDF but the Superb III with keyless entry is. Can anyone advise me of the overlapping VW / Audi / Seat models that might show up under their own marque so I can make a bit more of an informed judgement. The Combi is a 3T with MFSW, Columbus head unit and all of the stock buttons that would be on a 170CR SE DSG so I’m confident that a similarly spec’d A4, Golf, Passat etc would be a close enough fit if I could work out which ones those are. For reference, the Ghost 2 seems to be available fitted for around £400 so the Ampire WSF-400 pro, mail order from a dealer at 2 for £405 inc postage is quite compelling. If it will fit on the Superb II without too much fiddling. I'm happy enough with the install process, its more the uncertainty over which specific matching VAG programming in the unit will closely match. So, in short, which other VAG model codes are likely to be a close match for a Superb 3T. Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer 👍
