How to get cables through from the engine bay to the interior (and connect my subwoofer)?
Ideally you would want the left side to feed a supply from the battery, unfortunately most if not all the wiring into the cabin goes through on the drivers side. You need to remove the wipers and scuttle panel, then you can see the view attached. I have arrowed a "potential" entry into the left side of the cabin but you would need to locate it up under the dash to ensure you can access the other side. If thats not accessible, then on the drivers side, there is the main electrical loom entry, you can access this by looking up above the pedals on the drivers side, you can see "arrowed" where I went in with the factory cruise control kit. Using both scenarios you would need to get through the engine firewall first, that can be done through the bonnet release cable exisiting grommet (if your new cable fits) or drill a hole near to where is is.

help with abs long coding
are you reading the code with VCDS ? if so open the long coding helper and click on each "bit" in turn and select as you require, then save If your not reading with VCDS, then I would be very suspect of a code reading only zero's......

Fabia 2012 1.2 wiper & window problems.
26 is rear motor, 44 is front motor Fuse 10 provides a feed into the wiper stalk / switch, not saying it's the issue, but certainly worth checking.

Fabia 2012 1.2 wiper & window problems.
Not sure why you are so sure the window is not related to wiring problems, if this has been repaired prior it should be the first port of call imo. Wipers are likely to be the stalk itself "imo", Im assuming they do not work on any speed ?

Various MOT problems!
your car certainly needs some TLC............. As it says, track rod ball joint worn, so can be replaced, but you need a LOT of other bits to !! Why is the front seat missing !! ???????

Various MOT problems!
not sure what you mean to be honest you can just replace the track rod end ball joints.

High level brake light problem
it tells you above its LED...........to be honest, for about £50, why mess about, just fit a new one. I would ring your nearest dealer and get a price, even a VW dealer could get it, ask for trade discount, you can often get a good deal.
-
High level brake light problem
part number is 5J9945097 it has a seperate "holder" which the spring clips hold it into, I think it has to be unlocked...... I don't think the lens is supposed to seperate, it's the bond / glue between the lens and body of the lamp which has probably failed allowing moisture ingress and subsequently lamp failure. removal procedure below..........

Rear quarter glass replacement
The quarter window is a fixed / bonded window and comes as part of the seal / guide assy. Item 25 here :- https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/fabia/fab/2008-608/8/845-845000/#25 So you have to remove the seal / guide / window as one bit
