Hi Dan, All sorted now. If it was yourself who wrote to me, a huge thank you. Made my birthday!

Hi all, In August I moved house - going from busy town centre to quiet neighbourhood out of town. I'm insured with Adrian Flux at the moment as they were by far the best quote when the policy was up for renewal. My Octavia has a stage 1 remap from before me buying the car. I happened to see a service stamp from a performance garage who confirmed they had added it. Now that I know, I wouldn't want to not declare it (or run it on standard) so I want to keep everything above board. When I moved, my policy went from around £500 to £1000 - due only to the change of address. Has anyone else had something similar? Are there other, better insurers than Adrian Flux?

I think white top, black bottom on the grill would look quality! What size / model badges are appropriate for fitting the new style to a Mk2 FL Octavia vRS?

Pioneer Carplay in Mk2 Octavia vRS?

Thanks. Any experience with this? Looks like pretty much what I'd need. Wondering how compatible with iPhone it truly is, being an android system with crude photoshopped images. -
Hi, New here! Picked up my 2010 Octavia vRS 2.0T TSI last week and absolutely love it. Everything is just how and where I want it, only the ICE has left me a little unfulfilled. The speakers are great, the awkwardly placed aux and lack of Bluetooth being my main gripe. (Built-in sub - anyone know for sure?) I've read that although the Bluetooth media option is enabled, it was only possible on a DSG vRS without shelling out a few quid. If I'm going to do that, I'll likely go for the Pioneer SPH-DA120 Carplay headunit. I've had a look through different forums to see if anyone has installed one in a mk2 FL vRS Octavia so I can see how well it fits in but there doesn't seem to be anything other than people enquiring. Has anyone successfully installed this head unit and have any pictures to show how I could expect it to look? Alternatively, what's the best way to get Bluetooth working in the car and keep it looking as close to original as possible? Cheers in advance, P
