Can hid bulbs be fitted
Assuming you have halogen headlights, you'll need to replace the headlights for xenon versions along with headlight washers and the levelling system. Anything else won't pass the NI MOT Could get expensive depending if you can find used parts or not...

Footwell light - PIN in BCM ?
Then you'll need VCP or ODIS to reprogram the light outputs and move the rear fog light to a new pin. The footwell lighting is always on B50 and cannot be moved... If there are no spare pins, you may need a replacement BCM with some extra outputs

Footwell light - PIN in BCM ?
It'll be B50 just like a FL Octavia with a BCM:

Abs coding lost
A dealer should be able to restore it. Otherwise, a full unedited VCDS autoscan might help someone create one for you

coding mistake. Help me.
Assuming your VCDS cable is genuine, it's probably worth posting on Rosstech forums too: https://forums.ross-tech.com/ They will have more experience with a Audi TT that most people here

Infotainment retrofitting
I retrofitted a VC on to a MY18 so it already had a MIB2.5 Amundsen so I didn't need to upgrade/change anything apart from adding a MOST (optical) cable and buttons with 'View' rather than 'Phone'. I think you'll miss out on: - Map display on the VC - VC options screen on the radio Not sure about what else or if anything else on a MY16 would need replacing. @pab567 can certainly rework various MIB2 into a MIB2.5 so it would just be finding a 9.2" screen, most have a hardware fault which causes a vertical line unfortunately...

Infotainment retrofitting
@bubib5 I don't think Skoda Connect will work with a retrofitted MIB2.5... As you say, your VIN won't be listed as compatible on the VAG/Skoda servers so I'd be very surprised if it did

Locked doors
You can access the manual online here: https://manual.skoda-auto.com/210/en-GB/Detail?model=Fabia_NJ&edition=05-2016&market=&manualLang=en At a guess, you need to press the unlock button twice to open all doors

Driving an automatic - traffic lights
I think most people tend to do A. I'd probably do C using the handbrake - it's no less secure than a manual car Pretty sure B is considered a bad plan...

Amundsen+ w/ dab replacing amundsen - bluetooth question
Seems like a plan The only thing I'd add is when you want to try the Amundsen+ BT, unplug the existing BT module as it'll still communicate even if it's not in the installation list.
-
Amundsen+ w/ dab replacing amundsen - bluetooth question
It depends how you code it... You can either: - disable BT on the Amundsen+ and use the separate BT module - enable BT on the Amundsen+ and remove the BT module Your BT module is A2SP as you can stream music, however it may not be AVRCP compatible which is what adds the skip and track info. As you already have a mic, it's very likely to go directly to the BT module rather than the quadlock. If you want to use the Amundsen+ BT then you'll need to run new wires either from the mic or BT connector back to the quadlock connector I've no idea how the inbuilt BT compares or if it supports track skip/info etc...

MY19 vRS Background Lighting...
Yup, both VCDS and OBDeleven should be able to increase it from 10 to 30 colours or just change the original 10 edit: There are some options here:

Superb mk2 xenon head near light/ballast
I'd swap the ballasts over. No idea if you can replace the ballast without removing the headlight. On a 2012, the ballast will probably be a silver metal unit held in with three screws

General enquiry
At a guess, they want to remove the rear wiper so need a delete kit to plug the hole. However the vendor they are wanting to use aren't replying to email or phone so they wanted to know if others have used or contacted https://www.killallwipers.com/ recently 👍

Climate Control Knobs
I'm not sure, it's not something I've had to remove yet @SashaGrace probably knows
-
Climate Control Knobs
The knobs will unclip if you're careful. You'll need to remove the panel from the car and take off the facia first but you can see the four clips here: If needed, you can also remove the screws from the back of the unit to take it completely apart and make sure there isn't coke on the PCB etc

VAG but not Skoda (sorry) need VAGCOM advice
That part number seems to be a composition media (no sat nav)...? A quick google suggests 0627 exists for it, no idea if it's publicly available or correct for the headunit though :/
-
VAG but not Skoda (sorry) need VAGCOM advice
At a guess, that'll be a MIB2 Discover Pro which is basically a MIB2 Columbus. You don't need VCDS to perform an update but it can be used to clear a harmless error message after the update Once you've confirmed the exact part number and software version, I'm sure @pab567 can provide an update if it exists...
-
VAG but not Skoda (sorry) need VAGCOM advice
What headunit is it? Pictures of the headunit and its software versions or a VCDS autoscan might help

After software update no radio or phone
You might want to add a larger image, that ones tiny and basically unreadable

Help! Need the long coding descriptions for virtual cockpit
Assuming you're using genuine VCDS, you should ask on their forum as they can probably help 👍

Only Driver Door Opens When Unlocked
It's a setting you can change using the radio 👍 I think double tapping the unlock button will also unlock everything.

Drivers Seat Memory
Looking online, 5Q0 959 760 F seems to be from 2020/21 cars, at a guess, it should have 5Q0 959 760 A? A dealer or garage who have ODIS and an online subscription should be able to parameterise the module. Although I'm sure I've heard rumours that it can only do modules that are 'allowed' so I'm not sure if an F rev is officially supported on a 2016 car. Otherwise, a VCP user might be able to help - but it depends what parameter files they have access to
