I don't think that he is going to do a ton of job and then sell it, who's gonna buy it except if it's a ''crazy'' guy which likes something ''unique''? Privates sometimes buy project-cars but only if they have the knowledge, car sellers very often refuse to buy them and many times make derogatory comments because: 1) they don't know 2) they trying to lower the price too much. Many Americans spend even 2-3 years building a car (usually Muscle Car) but "it's for Lifetime'' as they say.

I use this when it's time for extra ''outside'' fuse, no problem with water-dirt etc. After many-many tests with many kinds of air filters-POD's (sponge-gauze) etc i returned to the factory air box with K&N filter with the tube that brings fresh air inside from the grille. With all the other patents i had noise plus hot air from the engine bay to ''feed'' them.

Skoda Favorit custom dash cluster I have also found this: https://phexsys.rajce.idnes.cz/Katalog_grafiky_-_Felicia/ Here are some other for Felicia. https://phexsys.rajce.idnes.cz/Felicia_gauges/ Do you like them?

No swap engine. https://www.skoda-storyboard.com/en/press-releases/skoda-felicia-kit-car-1995-the-next-chapter-in-an-international-success-story/ The most significant changes compared to the production car were under the bonnet: When ŠKODA MOTORSPORT was developing the ŠKODA FELICIA KIT CAR, the team not only had the tried-and-tested OHV engine with a capacity of 1,300 cm³ at its disposal but also an engine with a higher 1.5-litre displacement. It was with this engine that the car was ultimately homologated. Twenty-five years on, the outputs of 136 and 156 hp may seem modest, but the engines were both reliable and light. Since the competition at the time mostly opted for two‑litre four‑cylinder engines, the cars from Mladá Boleslav and their drivers truly had their work cut out on the international rally circuits. The specialists at ŠKODA MOTORSPORT used the technology of the time to its full potential; the engine’s pistons and crankshaft were forged, it featured OBR multi-point fuel injection, Bosch injectors, Jenswey throttle valves, Champion spark plugs and specially designed sports catalytic converters that did not reduce performance. In Mladá Boleslav, it became clear that the vehicle needed a more powerful engine if it was to be a regular winner in its class. Thanks to the brand’s existing affiliation with the Volkswagen Group, the designers were able to use an OHC four-cylinder engine with a 1.6-litre displacement and multi-point injection, which also made its debut in production vehicles with the winged arrow at the same time. Volkswagen itself had never used the engine in racing, so ŠKODA MOTORSPORT in Mladá Boleslav was almost entirely responsible for developing it. The pistons, connecting rods and crankshaft of the cast-iron four-cylinder engine were forged, and a new camshaft was used for valve timing. The resulting output of 174 hp meant an increase of eighteen brake horsepower compared to the heavier 1,500 cm3. The greatest advantage of this engine, however, was its wider power band.

That's the best !

Let me inform you that the Hillbillies and the Rednecks (moonshiners) back in 1920 era were the first which started improve their cars ( horsepower, bodywork, suspension, bigger rims and tyres) not only for escaping from Police cars but they invented the drifting and the racing in oval tracks (NASCAR). Without them as pioneers the World of Cars and rhe Customisation would be much different than it is now so we must respect their herritage.

Some years back i had stored links from some CZ stores about these aftermarket gauges but i lost my interest when i heard about problems with the main red needle alignment-the led light which have-the reflections from the sun in those chrome rings etc. With Paypal payment you have more security in payment with e-stores.

This way and if they are many this way

The factory has made many tests in many road situations, the driver that buys parts and tries to make them work together he gambles. It may work but it may not, so what's next? Drive an unbalanced in brakes car or go to the garage and start again from the beginning? I have seen many videos from USA that drivers had to make again and again tests and corrections (and of course extra money) to their cars after making patents upgrading their brake system. Personally (and maybe some other driver too) have not the luxury to test again and again my car in a track to find what's wrong and pay again and again money to correct things. If 3-4 drivers in the C brand forum make a specific patent and didn't worked to all of them then the 5th that thinks to do the same it doesn't take a huge risk? In Greece we call them ''volunteer suicide guys". All i am trying to say to @vucko1011 is to ''walk in a certain path" and don't make gimmicks.

As for those fance chrome rings that i mention before: https://www.ebay.ie/itm/222783693828 These are RS style https://www.skodateam.cz/bazar/?row=9gt These guys from si.onlinecheapsales.ru can not send items in Croatia? https://shop73002.abcdaustin.org/category?name=budíky škoda felicia They have Credit card and Paypal payment.

I searched these many years ago, usually were in CZ stores but now can be found in other e-stores. Here is an example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/123114442820 https://www.ebay.com/itm/123114442334?hash=item1caa314e5e:g:1IMAAOSwG4xa7CC9 I remember that i had searched also for these fancy chrome-look "rings" around those gauges. I stopped when other users informed me that they had problem with sun reflections while driving in sunny days.

I didn't said about those kits which have everything but for those patents in which try to "marry" things. No matter if the parts they are from well known brands the driver must know from other drivers test if these are working in every road situation. Many years back in Greek auto-forums some guys wrote negative comments after made patents because their car wasn't controllable at the last meters of the braking. Others made complains that they couldn't find new parts and installed used calipers, others that every time had to replace or fix something had a nightmare trying in various stores to find parts etc. IF there is a certified and proved by the time brake solution then GO.

Few months ago i visited the most famous Brake specialist in Athens to make an upgrade to my Felicia brakes. I said to him that from Skoda forums i have read that the A guy did this, the B guy did that etc but was didn't impressed, he said he know about these ''patents'' from many other cars but he insisted that: ONLY if many guys have done absolutely the same and that worked after many Kilometres on the road-track then the new customer can do this. Yes the C guy may done some ''miracles'' and posted them but he had to certify that what he done worked perfectly while braking in curbs-straight lines-on rain-on emergency braking situation etc. There are so many other factors (car factory balance-tyres-rims-suspension-ABS) that the owner must take consideration otherwise may end-up with a fancy brake system but in ''tough times'' can turn to a nightmare. The ''ready to installed'' kit's are much preferable but we the older car owners can not have often that luxury.

I was in cellphone last night and i couldn't see those 2 small buttons below. Yes as it is in my Felicia. The small motor is outside inside the engine bay, easy access with only one screw that holds the cap.

Are you going to replace those two empty buttons with one for a/c and the other for air recycle?

What type of cats we call black Siam in Greece: https://mypet.gr/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/maures-gates-facts.jpg Of course there are others in different colours. What we call Sellotape: https://www.24hr.gr/el/προϊόντα/προσφορές/κολλητική-ταινία-σελοτέιπ-logo-tape-clear-διαφανής-12mm-x-33m Different brands, different colours-thickness-length-sizes, transparent or non transparent, with plastic reel or without etc, all these are clarifications that follow the main word "Selotape" that you have to say to the seller or write in your search on the web. The same happens with the word "Paraflue", yes it was a Fiat additive for aluminium radiators and after some time every Coolant was called "paraflue" no matter what brand was or concentate-premixed-colour etc the first established word in older mechanics was one: "Paraflou" (that's the way we spell it). When a seller or a mechanic or a fellow driver here asks you about your radiator system: "do you have paraflou in your car?" he asks you if your car has enough Coolant.

Looks like Siam, lovely. Here we call it "Selotape"

Electrical diagrams and devices: Heating and air conditioning https://epowering.cz/skoda-felicia-dilenska-prirucka-elektrika/ (a part from my second link), it's far better than the Haynes manual.

These are from my book. I also found this in CZ language: https://skoda-virt.cz/cz/clanky/elektrika/845-el-schemata-felicie/ Click to enlarge the photo. This is much better, has ALL the manuals but not in english https://epowering.cz/skoda-felicia-dilenska-prirucka-elektrika/ For sure from the photos you can understand much more things than me.

My english are not good but you mean for example something like these?

Some guys use the:

I glued temporary the two pieces from the part of the plastic socket which has been cut-off. As you can see in the photos (front-rear) it's not round but oval shape. That means ''Overtighten'' is the cause of the problem so keep this in mind for your own coolant hoses, don't to my mistake.

No spark? I don't think so. https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2023/01/07/5-signs-of-a-failing-crank-sensor/ https://mechanicbase.com/engine/crankshaft-position-sensor-symptoms/ Crank sensor ''issues'' in the past caused me 2 times the car tun-off suddenly in the middle of the road.

It's impossible to find such a part here those days,the latest arrive of Felicia here was April 2000 so after few years the local official Skoda dealer stopped to import parts from Skoda Cz for this model. Even in Cz stores all you can find is like these from China: https://www.autobyznys.cz/x29272-en/hadice-hrdla-termostatu-favorit-felicia-1.3-cn-6u0121101 https://www.autodily-stancl.cz/motor/hadice-a-trubky/hadice-chladice-horni-felicia-13-cn-6u0121101.html or like these: https://autodilycz.cz/nahradni-dily/hadice-chladice-594152/?s=2573526 https://www.autokelly.cz/Product/XS-6U0121101/8673579 They don't say Genuine Skoda but even if you manage to find an original they don't have Paypal or credit card system but only bank transfer which means: delay plus money commission.
