Advices for parking light bulbs Fabia 2
hmm, thank you. I found this package of O-rings, but i don't know if any of them fit on the socket, do you know the size of the standard O-ring? I didn't find the dimensions anywhere.

It's a different position here (they don't all seem to be aligned, like the big ones)

@mrgf Thank you for reply! Do you know if the bulb socket (I circled in the picture what i mean) has a fixed/exact position? from what I noticed it seems not, but I would like to be sure (to know if I screwed it correctly/enough or not with both gaskets).

I looked today and I saw that little o-ring rubber (image here) was petrified/decomposed and part of it fell to the ground, like you said. I changed the bulbs and the o-ring rubber, but I didn't found suitable gasket in the package that I bought, it was either too wide, too thin or too thick 🤦♂️... I had to use a combination of a flat one and a normal one, like this: in this way it seemed to be screwed a little harder than when I unscrewed it, but I hope I didn't forced anything Do you think it's okay to leave it like this or should I look for other gaskets? (sorry if the question sounds silly, but I'm worried because I don't want the gaskets to put pressure on the taillight or something like this).

Thank you for reply. It has no gasket where i circled, and I think water can ingress through that space: if I replace (if necessary) these rubber O-rings but water can ingress through that space... is this ok? Has it ever happened to you?

Advices for parking light bulbs Fabia 2
Hello again... I went to wash the car today, and after it was ready, I left, turned on the lights and noticed on the dashboard the burnt light bulb indicator... I thought it was the light bulb that i just changed, but when i checked I was surprised to see that the positions/parking lights (both bulbs) on the rear left side were off. I walked about 10km to the supermarket, then i switched the ignition off and after 10-15 minutes after i returned and started the engine and the lights, all was fine (all parking lights were on, no burnt light bulb indicator). Should i worry about this? Maybe the water got into taillight? I washed the car before but that didn't happen to me...

@UrbanPanzer That's exactly what I was worried about. The new bulb (Panasonic one) is a little bit longer than the factory one. I made a little scheme 😆: Since it is not significantly longer, i hope that It shouldn't affect/melt anything, right?

what do you think? i refer to the remaining distance between the bulb and tail light lamp/assembly.

Central locking switch replacement?
Hello, On my central locking switch only the lock icon lights up, the open door icon remains off. I am interested in replacing it, but it seems pretty hard to do this. Does anyone know how to replace it? Is it necessary to dismember the center console? I'm talking about this one: Thank you!

How to replace front radiator grill?
@UrbanPanzer thank you! I visited that topic but unfortunately the images from certain posts are missing, which leads to a harder understanding of the information. I'm not sure about radiator grill replacement.

@mrgf thank you for reply! I changed the bulb, and i noticed that the new one (Philips) is a little taller (about 1mm) than the one from the factory. Can this be a problem (i hope there is enough space left between the bulb and the plastic of the taillight)?

Advices for parking light bulbs Fabia 2
Hello, For a while, one of the tail position lamps (parking lights?) did not light up, the burnt light indicator on board was active, or not. Currently, the burnt light bulb indicator is off on board, but from what I checked the bulb is off/burned. So, I thought I'd change it. I looked in the manual and saw that the bulb should be a W5W 12V 5W: I bought these bulbs https://www.amazon.de/Philips-12961B2-Glassockellampe-Vision-W5W/dp/B001B4S3NK but I'm not 100% sure if they're good or not. Can you help me with an advice please? Thank you very much! P.S: Sorry for my english.
