Sure, no problem. Those 3 pictures should give you an idea on how it looks like. The rear camera is not visible from the outside of the car but well visible in the rearview mirror. All the wiring runs under the roof liner and the pilar mounts. Skoda charged me 250EUR for the installation. IMHO Money definitely well spent. A+ Lionel

If only it were fitted in standard with a rear view camera .... ... but this is very minor, akin complaining about the ashtray color. Even the VR6 powered one flies under the radar, allows you to shop for and bring home whatever you wish at Ikea, plus such a long distance and agile car on the road. This car is really a blast to own and to drive.

It seems doable with some coding on the SS3 There seem to be an even nicer trick for all Kessy equiped cars. As soon as the key leaves the car, it locks itself automatically https://www.golfmk7.com/forums/index.php?threads/golf-mk7-vcds-tweaks.314861/page-24#post-6507286 Ross-tech has some further explanations. https://forums.ross-tech.com/index.php?threads/19793/ Thus it can also be used to lock automatically the car when exiting it and engine switched off ;-)

Thanks but the car is not a Bristish one, thus it is under a different legal system. Thus in Scandinavia, Switzerland (basically European countries with very cold Winters), it is customary to start the car parked in front of the house and leave the engine running for a few minutes in the morning while the car is locked. Hence my question ;-)

Hello, sometimes I have to go outisde of the car for a few minutes while the engine is running. I would feel more comfortable knowing that nobody can drive away with it if it were locked. Thus, I would like to know if there is a way (why shouldn't there be one?) to lock the car from the outside while the engine is running. I have the kessy option, but tried both to touch the locking pad on the door's handle as well as press the lock button on the keyfob to no avail. Has anyone a tip to share?

My understanding is that it could be possible to purchase directly from the manufacturer or to import it from a dealer in Poland. https://avisa.pl/en/rear-bumper-protectors-black-steel/ From my experience it is really dependable and manufactured to very high quality standards thus worth the effort Could be a possiblity. Like they say: if it seems stupid but it works, then it is not stupid. What do fellow members think of the idea?

Congrats. Looks great I like it :-)

Here are the pictures (sorry car bumper lid not very clean, Winter look) As you can see, it protects the bumper very well and looks good too. I am curious to see how the protector would look like on your VW Grey car

Yes, I'll post pictures tomorrow :-) Plastic one, I had on a peugeot 307SW, yeurk! The neighbohr also has a plastic one fitted on its Volvo V50. Problem is that, although they are cheap, after a few years of abuse they really look bad. While those metal ones still look great (this may also why they can usually be found on higher end vehicles) like XC90 or X5 as stock mount As for low key or high key, it all depends. I would say that the dark metal will look tough on your car :-) Just a matter of taste of course. Thus, even if the total cost was about 100EUR, the saying that "Cost is long forgotten but quality stays" is very true.

I own the same car model and can tell that the shape is different (which I discovered after ordering the same one as you). In the end I purchased one from Poland via a company called car parts experts ( https://www.carparts-expert.com/shop/skoda-superb-ii-combi-3t-2013-2015-wagon-rear-bumper-protector-stainless-steel-black-detail.html?redirected=147 ) I selected a dark one so to be low key and match with the car black colour. https://avisa.pl/en/rear-bumper-protectors-brushed-steel/ It is of a much better quality (good metal) than the one you mention. __BUT__ you will need to purchase a separate bottle of 3M degreaser because the small wipe which ships with the protector is not enough. https://www.sealantsandtoolsdirect.co.uk/manufacturers/3m_/3m_08984_general_purpose_adhesive_cleaner_1_litre_P30084.html Also keep in mind that you only have one try when you fit it or it won't stay. It has been on my car for a little bit more than a year and performs as advertised. Really a good investment. Right now it is dark outside, thus will take a picture tomorrow for you to see how it looks like after more than one year of usage. Hope this helps

Hello, As the technology moves forward to equip our cars with added level of security , I would like to know if fellow members have successfully retrofitted HUD Display (I don't know if the current Skoda HUD display can be retrofitted on our the SS2) as well as Thermal night vision cameras on the cars. I am pretty interested to know what the adopted solutions are as well as any long term feedback on them. As our cars use standard modules communicating over the CANbus, I am pretty sure, the SS2 can evolve well beyond its original specsheet. Some years ago a Mercedes car enthusiast retrofitted these on his car and the results were pretty impressive to say the least (others video also interesting) https://mbworld.org/forums/clk55-amg-clk63-amg-w208-w209/497147-megacrazy-s-build-thread-5.html Cheers :-)

Good evening, I am a new Skoda owner after owning only Peugeot cars and I would not look back. The car is a 3.6l VR6 Black Superb Combi FL (see picture). Actually it was love at first sight ;-) I have seen on the road what a difference dynamic turn indicators make. There are some Chinese made products available online but as it is a core safety equipment, I am very reluctant to go this way. There has been a video from OSRAM showcasing their product for the VW Golf. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOnEBJszEqs I find it pretty impressive and it is EU Certified which gives confidence in the product. Googling for it, It seems it is going to be offered also for other cars, including the Passat B8. http://lightistransformation.com/shop/produkt/osram-ledriving-dmi-dynamic-mirror-indicator But it seems the side mirrors are different, maybe it is only the part where the turn signal indicator is located which is the same for both cars. Does anyone on the forum knows the answer or knows about reliable dynamic turn indicators solution for the SS2 FL ? Thanks in advance, Lionel
