Good morning, There have been a lot of alloy wheel thefts locally so I have decided to upgrade the security nuts on my Superb mkIII 2015 3v5 1.6TDI. They are currently OEM and after a lot of surfing I decided to go with McGard SL grade. I have a voucher for Halford for £25 which I would like to use up. My searches show 28018SL is the correct nut whereas Halfords say 27184SL is correct. Can anyone confirm which is correct please 28018SL Thread size M14 x 1.5 Seat: R13 radius seat Shaft Length: 26.7mm Hex Size: 17mm 27184SL Thread size: M14 x 1.5 Seat: 60° cone seat Shaft Length: 24mm Hex Size: 17mm

Thank you for taking the time to reply. The table I inserted is from a Yeti but it has a same sized battery. My original "11.7V" was a guess but as the voltage cut off relay is programmable I think I will follow your advice and set it at 12.1V TC

DEL8OY hit the nail on the head Captain Kirk, parking in supermarkets, multistory car parks or even on the street gives you a chance of some recourse if you are hit.

Thanks for the link, unless I am mistaken this powers only one camera and I will have two. I could buy two I guess but the circuit I am designing has two 3A supplies (most of the bits already ordered). If I struggle to find nice switches I will fall back on 315 MHz remote relay switch and miniature key fob. Thanks for your reply TC

I am finally going to tidy up my dash cam install when I fit a rear camera to my combi to compliment the front one. I propose to take a 12v "always live" feed via a voltage sensing relay (set at about 11.7V in case I forget to switch them off !) to power the cameras and switch. I would like to use one of the blanked out switch positions around the gear console but these don't look like a "standard' size. Would anyone know the parts numbers for these switches or, indeed, a non VAG switch that fits instead. Any help much appreciated TC

Just aquired my first Skoda. Octavia L&K 140 Combi. I don't believe in lurking so I joined the forum to learn and perhaps help others once I know something !
