What have you done to your Superb III today?
Oh, I thought I open the caps and reach for the harness and then plug them cables. WIll check later and might take a few shots. Thanks.

For the standard placement behind the rear seats, no cables required. For the trunk/rear hood as MartiniB, I think they are used to extend and install 180' deg from "intended" position?

Plug'n'play on the liftback. The saloon/estate has it in a different place.

LED boot upgrades. Those were the only non-led bulbs from factory. Pedal and footrest revamped. Pleased with the materials: soft sticky rubber and stainless steel. All fits like a glove, no tools required.

The Superb III Picture thread
I missed my Pegasus Anthracites the whole winter! They has some kerb marks so I had them renovated and now in mint condition again.

Fuel reserve
OMG I heard they literally clamp fuel lines when changing the fuel filter. The level of disrespect in this forum is too damn high.

Fuel reserve
The damage to diesels from air into fuel system is more than self-explanatory, or so I thought… The warning though for fuel level is for keeping diesel temp below 45’c. Hence the fuel line radiator.

I’d do a contactless foam and rinse every week - we do 2-3 commutes a week, and after every family trip too. We got some warm days now so I am already washing bugs from grill and bumper, while still driving my winter tyres! Corrected that the day after taking the pic.

Fuel reserve
As pointed out, that could be a costly trial for a diesel engine. Not only running out and priming trouble, risk of air bubble damage. Also, low fuel level, despite presence of a return fuel cooler matrix, can cause condensation of water vapour from cold air in a nearly empty tank, or, reduce fuel viscosity and lead to incorrect combustion. The minimum quantity acts as a cooling buffer too. Yes, there can be one-offs but I would rarely let remaining range drop below 100km. I can plan a 1300km drive with a single top-up without getting down to the red line.

I am sending my Pegasus Anthracites to get curb scratches repaired. Found cheap German Autec Zenits with same offset on a local ad. Not too bad - I am keeping them as a winter tyre set. No excuse for the dirty car though - have been to a couple of development plots that day.

Easy fit dash cam
Mirror USB-C does not provide enough current for some models of dashcams (2A).. In order to overcome it, an adapter from C-type to A-type has to be fitted in this tiny spot, and then plug the dashcam cable into the A. Adapter small

Easy fit dash cam
70mai A500 is regarded as a good option by local club mates. I use my ancient Mijia and ran the cables above the a-pillar and inside the door seal -> under glove compartment and straight to the USB below the cigarette lighter. The latter is linked to the Amundsen and switches off when it should, eliminating chance of battery drain.

Replacement tyre recommendations.
I’ve disproven myself on this one. Long story short, I had 6000kms in the last 2 months through ice, snow, motorway, etc. on commute, errands, family trips with Windforce Chinese tyres. I can say they did not underperform in any situation so far, compared to any Goodyear, Michelin, Vredestein or Debica I have used in the last 2 decades. I am well aware that they would probably last 3 seasons at best but for £200 total, including fitting, I am not going to be worried about longevity if my wife hit a curb by accident.
