  1. Great guide! Just finished wiring my Thinkware rear cam, I had a slight advantage having a dashcam already fitted so could tie-wrap the new cable to the old and pull it from front to back. That rubber conduit was tricky, I spent 10 mins getting the cable through before realising i had the cable wrapped around the tailgate strut so had to start again 🤣 Now to re fit all the car trim.
  2. Not possible as far as 8 know. One of the views does show basic directions and street name though.
  3. I noticed mine made a sound before the engine started only when air-con is on, more of a buzzing relay sound though
  4. I got stung with that too. It depends on the options added, the base price was below £38k. Mine had DCC, Panoramic roof and optional alloys so would have taken it over £40k.
  5. They take anything, thieves aren't badge snobs. Yours would be top of the list being a 280.
  6. In the manual! https://manual.skoda-auto.com/
  7. Yeah I've seen a few but none in Meteor/Steel Grey
  8. I've been looking at the thread below and like the look of the bonnet badge that matches the body colour. I've found them at kopacek, does anyone know anywhere else that sells them? https://www.kopacek.com/exterior/emblems/superb-iii-original-skoda-emblem-i-n-t-version-front-colour-f7a-steel-grey
  9. I use this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0CJJ89N7J Is this the one that could wear out?
  10. I'm replacing a rear camera in my estate, the current one is shown below. I've found a video showing how to remove the whole trim but was wondering if it's possible to just unclip the top part where the arrows are, does anyone know?
  11. I've bought one of these to try, will report back with the results https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00X0VPAH4
  12. Thanks, I've found this one too, no mention of coding in 10 Park/Steer Assist like shown above though. The above translates to "Lane keeping assistant with steering intervention installed"
  13. My Sportline came with lots of scratches on the black trim below the side windows. Has anyone got any tips to fill these in eg a particular touch-up pen or black marker maybe?
  14. Does anyone have the instructions to enable lane assist in the FL model? I believe it's slightly different to the non-FL.
  15. Not sure what is, so it prevents closure if someone is in the way? If so part numbers !!!!!
  16. I came across the topic below whilst trying to work out why my fuse slots 13/41 are empty (seat belt tensioners). As @Aperture777 points out in this when a fuse slot is not in use you will just see the 'bus bar' (power) and nothing in the other slot (to device) This is my fuse box with the 2 fuse taps removed, outlined red (40/47). You can see to the right of each an empty slot (green), I have tested both of these and the upper is permanent live, the bottom is ignition live, so both could have been used to power the dashcam rather than piggybacking an existing fuse. Looking at several other posts I see some people saying they can't use a 'fuse tap' in a socket as there is currently no fuse there. Correct me if I'm wrong but surely it's better to use an empty slot?
  17. Is it recommended to disconnect the battery when removing the A pillar due to the airbags?
  18. I've managed to confirm it's the wrong way round. I removed original fuse from the fuse tap and re-fitted the same way as above, the Halo dashcam did not work. Fitted it the other way (wire down) and the dashcam worked. Probably a dodgy Halfords job. It won't fit the correct way around with both fuses in the fuse tap in 47 as that big yellow fuse gets in the way. My 48 fuse slot is empty so should be able to use that. Then to deal with the other upside down fuse tap above it!
  19. Hi all, I got my car a month or so ago and it came a Road Angel Halo already fitted. I had already bought a Thinkware dashcam earlier this year and am planning to fit it at the weekend. I thought i'd have a quick look at how the Halo is wired so i've just unclipped the glovebox to get to the fusebox. In each fuse tap the original fuse is in the lower socket and a 2 amp fuse in the upper as it should be but are these fuse taps the wrong way round? I haven't got my voltage tester at the moment to check but all other installs I have seen on here has the fuse tap with the wire going downwards.
  20. Maybe I have the latest already then, my online updates expired in Aug. Maps is 24.8. The logo I'm after is for Radio X, I think I'll have to live without it!
  21. Does anyone know where I can see what version of logos are currently installed?
  22. The files are n the right place, I just extracted straight to the drive Not sure where to find that SK number. I have a VCDS scan but nothing with SK-MQ in there.
  23. Not working as exFAT either, what's Presentation? I've just check https://www.phonostar.de/vw/en/download with my HU p/n, 3V0035816K, and it comes up as no update available so maybe mine can't be updated 🤷‍♂️
  24. PC. I thought it had to be FAT32? I'll try exFAT
