Here are the new speakers, was a ''plug and play'' task. The painted mesh is ready, i will install them to.

I said it because i have seen it here in Greece with a similar gear from Mercedes. The mechanic itself show this to camera, he said "i couldb't find it so i 3D print it". Examples: https://www.printables.com/model/296204-rc-car-gear https://www.printables.com/model/20217-childrens-electric-car-plastic-gear-gearbox-550/remixes You can order printing in ABS plastic or metal.

To do what? The led indicator for the radiator fan has nothing to do with the headlights.

No, here is the proof with photos. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/493532-skoda-felicia-hood-scoop/page/4/#findComment-5762486

My first thought would be to call a locksmith or go the whole mechanism to him to remove the broken part of the key and with the spare (that every driver keeps in house) to make a copy. Now he has one new key for engine start and the 2nd factory key for lock-unlock the doors and for the trunk,fuel cap.

Since worked as it should be (as @Storrum said) the connections must be right but something happened, maybe a connection is loose or a wire is cut and now touching another one etc. A switch removal and a new inspection must be done from an electrician for proper connectivity and let's hope that the replacment switch isn't a cheap like VIKA, otherwise i would blame it.

Preparation and painting, 2 layers. Next is installation and photos while they are on the panel.

Here are my new front speakers. https://www.soundoftristate.com/hertz-dcx130-3 2-way 13cm coaxial speakers 40W RMS power handling (80W peak) High Density flux ferrite magnet Water repellent pressed paper cone woofer Neodymium magnet Mylar dome tweeter Frequency response: 60-21kHz Impendence: 4-ohms Sensitivity: 91 dB/Spl Outer diameter: 130mm Mounting hole diameter: 119mm Mounting depth: 52mm

In a local store (you have to order it), you can check also in Cz stores although it's difficult in translation. From another Felicia as donor?

A diagramme would help far more, before few years in a Skoda forum a member had made a scheme for this but the forum closed at 2023 and i don't think i can find it. It's very helpful to have and indication when the fan is On and Off, may prevent a disaster.

Original here has 46,69 € while the JP Group has 14,61 € MAPCO has 14,86 €

That's for @ludvig ?

I have to admit that i haven't read for Felicia that brake seals must be changed. I still have the original and i don't know where to search for new ones. 🙄

Should i keep them or change them with something reasonable as RMS 50W? 2 or 3 way for rear?

Oh really? No seals or any other modification? Compleately wash-up the previous DOT and refill with DOT5?

Oh, sad news. if you can not find new or used one you can 3D print it.

Just as an experiment i ordered and installed stickers with the name ''Felicia'' on them, here is the result. Maybe in the future i will do something different.

Too sloppy work that night, not only in cables but in connections-screws etc, imagine that they didn't use red-black cable so next time the electrician didn't knew which cable was the + and which the - Wasn't about the race buy for the nationality, those guys didn't knew what to do because simply till few years back they didn't had cars in their country, was forbidden by the Party to have private property. The owner of the store hired them to save money from salaries, he paid this few years later when the store closed due to competition and customer complains. These are my rear speakers, i won't install the same when it's time to change them.

I bought it without radio or speakers, empty. I went in a Car Sound store and they installed what they thought was proper. I didn't had the knowledge to suggest something to them but i didn't liked their work for example cables not through the door but outside (!) the panel and i never visited them again. I don't write the nationality of the installer because @Papez will call me again "racist". After few months i visited another Car Sound store, the electrician was suprised from the lousy work of the previous "shepherd" (as we call here any bad installer) and made many corrections.

I think mine has output power 50W x 4, if the rear need change in the future for sure i wouldn't put 130W. In front i have bought Peak 80 W and RMS 40 W

First time heard about ''I.C.E'' was back in 1999 in the Max Power magazine from UK. After few years here in GR we had young people with huge speakers-subwoofers-amplifiers having very loud music trying to impress other youngsters in the cities, we call them ''deaf horses" and laughing. Many times those idiots involved in crashes only because they didn't paid attention on the road or haven't heard the horn from another driver. Unfortunately the Traffic Police here shows too much tolerance to those morons which many times at 2 o'clock at night they waking us with their loud music as passing buy. Never really cared about loud music in the car, i prefer to hear the noises from the car especially in the Mountain roads, the choice of Watts was from the electrician back when i bought the Felicia, he installed 100W at front and 130W in the back. I have Alpine radio-cd-mp3 player and of course no amplifier.

Here are my front speakers, after 25 years of use are dusty-rusty and with reduced performance. I time for replacement, also i have removed the grey colour factory grille for painting.

Update: I made a patent to seal better the hood with the oval shape gasket of the engine bay. I took a sheet of soft self-adhesive insulation, put it above that gasket and closed the hood so this will create a mark of it's shape. then i took inside the hose and cut it. Then i went outside the road where the car was parked and i install it around the ''lips'' of the hood which bring fresh air inside the factory sponge air cabin filter. Yes i know doesn’t look very good but i won't go to a car-show. My main concern is that the gasket will touch that soft material and with the one-click of pressure will make a better ''sealing'' situation than before so no fumes from the engine can ''penetrate'' inside and then to the cabin. PS: That insulation material can stand high temperatures with no problem.

Someone may say ''why you didn't remove the previous ones?" I didn't because this would take time and effort from the installer, plus more time to remove any glue remains plus if the work wasn't 100% good any small remain could cause a bulge below the new (and thin) carbon look tape. The car will not go to a show so no need to be a perfect look task. The photos are not so good and there are some reflections but you can get an idea. The project hasn't finished yet, i will install a set of Logo (stickers) on them in few days.

In GR we call them like ''foot door decorative stickers", in the first years i had a pair like this which basically i never liked but no many options those years-no internet buying etc so i kept them for a while. Before some years i decide to change them and i bought a stripe more thicker-no shinning with a carbon look, the guy which install them didn't told me that were shorter than it should be and when i realise the result i wasn't so happy. 😠 Nothing great but the did their job but one day i had the thought to cover them with more darker carbon look tape which would fill those gaps too. I bought this type: and i install it above the existing one.
