So in other words a single din radio should fit straight in by the sounds of it. What's the best way to remove the standard radio?

Electric windows not working
My front 2 windows are playing up both sides. You unplug the sockets on the drivers loom by the door and it works again most times or disconnecting the battery. It was working fine for 2 weeks and now just stopped. The fuses are all good I will have to take the door card of driver side and have a look. The control modules are these just on the motors or is there a separate main one for controlling both units as well?

Door lock rear correct screws needed
Hello I had to smash out the rear deadlock due to it failing. But the 2 screws ends where shot that attach to the door. I had to drill these out to fit the new deadlock complete. The 2 screws I'm using are bolt ends the heads to big for socket to go on to. I put these on temp to fit in place to get the door open just with finger tight. So I'm looking for the correct 2 screws that fit in the door to hold the door lock in place. I have a link below if this is the right 2 screws? link https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/18d837359a-screw-m8x22-skoda-24533.html Thanks

Grades of engine oil
So the 505.01 oil will need service shorter. The 507.00 oil can be extended from what's being shown below. What's the mileage difference between the 2? Thanks for the picture it clears a lot of things up.

Grades of engine oil
My typo mistake. So I will get oil with 505.01 and 507.00 standard spec. I will then choose either 5w30 or 5w40 oil. I will go with fully synthetic. I know PD engines are very fussy with oils that's why I've had to make sure its going to be right.

So I can get oil with 501 01 standard spec and choose either 5w30 or 5w40 oil. So does the fully or semi synthetic make a difference on these engines. The mk1 skoda fabia 1.4 tdi mk1 2006 on mine just got a cat no dpf.

Electric window problem
Hello the electric windows have started playing up. I changed the switch on the driver side and it worked fine along with the passenger one due to being warn out. I watched a film clip on utube how to make the windows work again by un plugging the connector in the driver door loom. I do this the windows work fine but soon as you switch the engine of the problem back unless you unplug the connector again. So is there a control or relay box problem on these cars? Skoda fabia 1.4 tdi 2006 Thanks
