64Plate Elegance Heated Seats Possible?
stargixxer replied to stargixxer's topic in Skoda Rapid & Spaceback (2012 > )
I wish it was on the Elegance, my life would be easier! Thanks eyegr, I'll get digging... -
Hey troops. Bought the wife a 64 plate 1.4tsi DSG Spaceback at the weekend in white. Cracking wee motor. Only thing is, she's missing the heated seats from her old car already (bad back already, and now she's pregnant), is there a way I can retrofit these? I don't mean the cheapo crappy seat cover that plug into the 12v socket. I would want them OEM (I've doe plenty of this kinda stuff before on my Octy, windscreen wash sensor, factory bluetooth/Nav etc...) and have VCDS. I've seen photo's of the switch gear which shows the heated seat signs, but not in the UK, so I presume it was never an option here. I believe I'd need the switch assembly, seat elements wiring from the switch to body control unit and from there to seats. As for which ones though, I'm utterly lost! Anyone been down this road..?

We got a 2013 1.2 TSI Ibiza for my wife to run about in. Its the 115hp 4cyl, only SEAT seem to use it. Good wee motor. -
Happy to help

My '12 CR VRS has 272mm rears. I could only find them listed for the golf.

OK brainboxes, what does this do?
stargixxer replied to 4muddyfeet's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Yep, allows air con/heater air flow in the jumbo box. I was trying to convince my wife it was a torture instrument for every time she couldn't read a map.... the trouble is, I don't think she has enough fingers... -
I think they are dealer fitted Skoda ones, they look same as other ones I've seen on Octy's.
-
Eddie, can you help on my quey above at all, post #9. Thanks.
-
Sorry for daft Q, I have rear parking sensor, just bleeps, looks like dealer fitted, if I fit this Ops mudule, what else is needed for it to show on the Bolero (12 plate FL vRS). cheers

I have a couple of items for sale as they we're ordered for my cars service, but turned out to be incorrect, as the mechanic got his greasy paws on the boxes, the seller won't take them back. Genuine VAG parts in geniune boxes (with aforementioned oily finger prints). Air Filter 1K0 629 620 - I believe is for the 6 cylinder V6 petrol engines (Superb V6, Passat R36, Golf R32, Audi 3.2). £12 posted Fuel Filter 1K0 127 434 A - is a TDI filter, just depends which filter housing you have. £13 posted Prices as above, UK Postage only. Cheers, Kev.

I put Mintex on the Octy. Perform well, but by god did the centres rust quick.

Yeah, I just came on to see if anyone had posted it yet...
