Wing mirror parts
At a guess, you need - but please check! - 5E0949102 - 5E0857532 Probably around £30-35 for both It's certainly not a hard task to replace them. Water ingress might fry the indicator electronics but the wing mirror is designed to have water coming in.

BCM module
It looks like something has triggered component protection to kick in but I can't imagine what. I'd probably start by finding a dealer or local independent using ODIS with online access to reset CP. Guess you could try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes to see if restarting everything helps first. Certainly isn't anything obvious to suggest the BCM is faulty...

Replace 8" to 9.2" for MIB2 Amundsen
MIB2.5 Columbus runs at a higher resolution than the MIB2 Amundsen so the larger screen is not compatible.

BCM module
If you're only getting a Component Protection error, then the BCM might be fine but something has caused CP to get upset. Post a full autoscan up from VCDS

front shocks
Do you have DCC (Dynamic Chassis Control) aka electronical adjustable suspension - most obvious sign would be a 'comfort' mode in the driving modes options. If so, a pair of genuine DCC front shocks are the best part of £600 which is the bulk of the cost. I recently had mine changed for a similar price. However, it you have normal suspension, that feels quite expensive as the shocks as much much cheaper...

Help needed to change car skin
I would be surprised if the MIB2.5 firmware had graphics for the pre-FL as I don't think it's an official combo... Pretty sure you can extract the graphics from the MIB2 using MIB2 toolkit and then insert it into the MIB2.5

2005 Skoda Octavia - Left Dipped Beam Issue
I've not done it on a pre-FL mk2 but I don't think there is anything complex involved... The only real danger is leaving it plugged into the car due to the voltages used. As long as it's disconnected, it should just be the three screws you can see and the two connectors. They will probably be quite stiff. Before buying anything, I'd try swapping the headlights over and possibly the ballasts. Just to confirm if it's the car wiring, ballast or bulb that's at fault

Correct bi xenon beam pattern
Both headlights should be the same height so number 2 is correct - assuming that the headlights are at the right height which is impossible to tell from a picture Much like these images:

Which SD Card?
You have a Bolero which does not support satalite navigation... Adding the SD card won't change this 😞

What’s this button?
Pretty sure most common rail engines aren't a great candidate for bio-diesel conversion due to the lubrication needs in the high-pressure fuel pumps and injectors so it feels quite unlikely for such a new car to have been converted given the potential savings. There is already an option in the infotainment system to disable interior monitoring if needed. It used to be a switch on the drivers B-pillar... Progress As I said before, the tracker is the most likely option. It might be worth taking a look to see if there is any wiring coming off the back of the switch or any other obvious modifications around the OBD port. It's likely to be a separate system so I wouldn't expect any obvious changes when flicking the switch. It's worth investigating to make sure that you're not being tracked and there are no future issues with power draw causing a flat battery etc. Assuming it has been completely removed, a new blanking plate will let you remove the switch too

How-to: DCC Recalibration
The simplest way is to buy an error cancelling kit, these plug into where the shocks used to connect and should prevent errors. Coding will depend what equipment your car has. There is a brief look at some of the modules involved here: https://www.golfmk7.com/forums/index.php?threads/dcc-retrofit.378431/page-11#post-7815140 If you have xenon/LED headlights with self levelling, you'll need to rewire the ride level sensors from the DCC module to another module to perform the levelling.

What’s this button?
Pretty sure it's normally the headlight range for cars with halogen headlights As for the OP's car, it's probably for an aftermarket tracker which can be set to business or personal use (hence B & P). No idea if it'll still be fitted or if it's just the switch that's been left in place.

Maps Update - Amundsen MIB2 - Format SD car?
It's the CID (Card IDentification) that determines if the SD card can be used for maps or not. Formatting won't change or delete the CID so it's perfectly safe to do so. There is a guide here:

How do I keep radio on after shutting engine off?
Normal behaviour is for the radio to stay on until you remove the key. If it's intermittent, then I expect something in your ignition barrel is starting to fail or it's become loose enough that it thinks the key has been taken out

VCDS Scan - What's The Diagnosis
Sounds like you should grab some wiring diagrams etc from erwin as you probably need to check for power, ground and CAN at each of the modules on the drive CAN-bus. Very loose positions of the modules:
-
VCDS Scan - What's The Diagnosis
Looks like the entire drive can-bus is down... Unlikely to be that many fuses. You could disconnect all the modules on the drive can-bus to see if it's a module.. Otherwise, it could be the can-gateway or possibly the wiring to it from the drive can-bus. At least that's my first guess 🤔
