@Pete_Ger did it work? I am planning to do the same on my skoda karoq, yesterday I've retrofited a highline reverse camera and I was thinking to activate the relay with the reverse signal from the BCM. Does it throw any error? Thank you!

@Shahoff were you able to remove the media unit from the glovebox without removing the entire glovebox? Mine seem to have short cables or something because, I can pull the media unit out for about 90% of it and I can not access the quadlock. Thank you!

Hello, Quick question: were you able to access the quadlock connector from the back of the media unit without removing the glovebox or it's only available with the glovebox removed? I have managed to remove the media unit but not entirely, just about 90% of it and I can not access the quadlock connector. Thank you!

For me, I want to remove this cover just to be able to mount a front parking camera and I want to make it look like OEM but I think I have to remove the entire front grille.

I do have the 2 screw holes but I don't think there is a cover there, I believe that for me, in order to access the radar, I need to remove the entire grille. Searching over the ethernet, I found no radar cover for the Karoq, only for Kodiaq 😔

Hi @Camarao69 , I am planning to remove this cover on my 2019 Karoq. I am guessing that after removing JUST the cover I will not have to calibrate the RADAR again, right?

Hi guys, I am planning to remove this radar cover on my car to retrofit a front parking camera. Are there any chances to do something to the radar that would require a calibration afterwards? Thank you!

@JR RS can I add another set of sensors afterwards because I have 4 wheels for summer and another 4 wheels for the winter??

Yes, on CarScanner app

Hello guys, Do you have any idea about the TPMS kits that are being sold on Aliexpress? Are there any good or there is a big chance that I end up buying a fake OEM module? I am thinking of retrofitting this on to my Skoda Karoq 2019. Thank you!

Hi guys, I know that the Skoda Karoq is not the same as the Skoda Octavia MK4 but I just wanna say that, using an ELM327 and CarScanner app, I successfully read the dataset and I have also tried some presets and I can say that for sure, the sound is a lot better, I mean, a lot better than the stock: deeper bass, higher volume. First I did a dump of the current dataset(the stock one) and later I have tried to modify manually the dataset using the tutorials from mqbsound but for some reason the dataset was rejected and an error code was present in the 5F module( I guess the CRC was wrong). Then, I have tried the option #4 from the presets and now it's like my sound system came alive 😅 Now, I am planning to soundproof the door cards.

You can use some comparation tool like beyond compare and see only the changes that I did for the additional sun 🥂 adpmap-09-5Q0-937-084-DD_TMBJG7NU2K2049969-20251210-2106.txt.CSV

If your talking about the one that I have post it above, there was no sun activated there. I will activate the sun again on my car and make you another map file so you can se the changes that I made. I will also try to explain from my memory what and each of the coding does but I will come back with a reply later since I am away from the car at the moment

Can you post here you the map file? I will try to have a look and maybe find the issue?!?!

No, the sun is available once I add in vcds a new function to a new group. If I remember corect, all the groups have the doors assigned to them, so once I change group 14 to celling light(or panorma) I was able to see the new sun. I don't have anything(no led) connected as a celling light but the sun is still there. I am unable to control any rgb light using the celling sun because all the leds that I buyed are doors intended(there are specific led codes which goes to the celling)

Hello guys, I am really interested in this topic as I read on different forums that updating the sound datasets will "bring my sound system to life". I don't have ODIS or VCP, I bought myself an ELM327 adapter but I think it's a cheap version as it doesn't have a pic18f25k80 uc and it's showed as a "BAD ELM327" so I did not risk it to do any reading/writing with it. My main question, I guess, is : for you, who made a successful reading and writing of the dataset, did it really made a big improvement of the stock sound system? Is it worth the work? I am also thinking to buy a VCP, but I don't know what to buy; you guys have a link? Thank you!

Today, I've received a new rgb led module from aliexpress. This one seems to be oem, the light is dimm and nice even though in some situations I can see the component colors, I think I can solve the issue. For the moment, I did not make any coding but I am able to control the colors and the intensity. Now, that the light is so nice and dimm, I am planning to use it for the door handles. Now, I have(which I will not use) 2 rgb lamps for the door handles, and antoher 2 modules, 2 color(white and red)also for the door handles 😂😂

Well, you can either take 12v from different pins from the door module(you will need to check the datasheet of your door module) or you can tap a 12V wire, for example the one which provides light to the door buttons . I would say the easiest way is with a multimeter and check for a 12V wire.

@Honza179 there is a way to extend your ambient light using a combination of oem rgb module with an aftermarket light strip. Here is a link which will help you: https://www.drive2.ru/l/578970388667566428/ Best of luck!

Hello, any aftermarket ambient light that you add to your car will not be controllable from the OEM head unit 😔 Only original ambient light can be controlled from the OEM head unit

I only have the map file before the above changes. adpmap-09-5Q0-937-084-DD.CSV

Now that I am thinking, they are supposed to be controlled by the doors slider as the leds are intended for the door handles 😅(just as a side note)

After some reading over forums and trying different codings, turned out the issue was the fact that even after I did all the changes for the "sun" to be displayed, it won't be displayed until I add the new led to a specific gruppe. Once I did that I was able to see the new "sun" as shown in the picture. Now, I still can not control the brightness from the new sun(interior mirror), but I can control it from the doors slider and here I have the biggest problem 😂 the china led will display a different colour once is very dimmed(see the pictures below) so I will not be able to use these leds as I was planning to, they are too bright for my taste.
