Hi it is possible to update sw. Follow this vide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGUMKWzW-mI

Hello guys, realy nice project @singh946 , i am interested to fit something similar to my rapid. I also only have 3 rear sensors but I want to go a little further and put 12k unit in so I could also have 4 side sensor and redo rear to 4 like octavia/superb... could have. I have some questions related to your retrofit that could help me. 1. Did you try to connect 4 sensors on the rear, it could be that one of the errors on park/steer assist module that you had could be because of that 2.For the electronic parking brake do you think or maybe know if it would work if you had park module from octavia mk3 or maybe polo as those could have 8k oem and didn't have electronic park brake or if you could code it to normal handbreak in long coding as sometimes those things can be done on some moduls 3.Button for sensors is only connected to parking module or anywhere else? I ask that because 12k module also hase PLA option which I would try to make it work next and I need a button that could activate it so for that I would need a button from some other car because rapid couldn't have that if you have any answers to those questions it would help me. I was looking on wiring sets and think that if you connect everything it shouldn't be a problem as the system is compleat. Only logical problem could be in 5F as some units can't display those things or have limited what they can display. I fitted amundens unit from superb and know I have room for those thing with unit as my previous swing didn't have that much options. For example rear camera. I was looking to retrofit higline camera as rapid could only have lowline, it should work as only thing that uses and is connected to camera is 5F(and can network) and my unit support it(I talked to a guy that retrofits oem cameras on cars and he said it support it). Again thanks for any informations from anyone about this kind of retrofit.

I have retrofited amundens in my skoda rapid. I have also installed new antena with gps. Nav system worked at first but not always, I couldn't set navigation and just not positioning where I really was. Then it stopped picking signal compleatly. I bought on aliexpress gps antena which should work as I saw a lot of people buy those antena for nav retrofits but still nothing, now even nav menu won't start and displays that it doesnt have media with maps. Annyone have similar experiences or know how to fix? I was also thinking to retrofit revers camera but i want to fit higline instead of lowline, as far as my reaserch goes it shuld work but i was thinking if anyone have octavia/super/kodiaq etc. with this camera if handle is same size as on rapid or other cars. This would made retrofit easyer and cheaper. Also didn't find no info on if you could opt revers camera with only rear sensors or you need to have front too. If I need to retrofit front sensors for camera do I also need parking sensor button that comes under climatronic or not. I know that I need this button for higline camera to power it on comand without putting it in reverse but don't know if I need it to put that for camera to work normaly or can I fit that later. I was thinking to go step further and install parking aid from octavia/superb so I could have 4 rear sensor insted of 3 and 4 in front with 4 side sensors. This should work as I have amundens unit 5q0 035 874 b wich could also be in those cars with that system and its able to display informations. I would be happy to see if any one have some more informations about those systems if it would work what do I need to be prepered for or if anyone have already done it. I was thinking to put this question on octavia/superb forum since they have this systems but I would start searching for answers hear : ) Thansk for any informations or help

This is as much as i know. You would most likely need to replace gateway(not sure for pq retrofit but for mib toconversion its needed). You would also need quad lock adapter from RNS to PQ system or diy it your self. All MIB2 based units have CP that includes PQ units. Best option is to unlock it with dealer or someone with ODIS but there are some ways to "bypass" it but it will show error on diagnostic tools(unit still works). If you think USB and AUX under climatronic those have cables that go into unit on quadlock connector on MIB units USB connects to separate port and AUX on quadlock. Cables can be found so you can replace(note if you want to use apple car play you would need to replace USB port as iphones need special type for comunication, android should work with what you have). Functions just need to be coded on unit to your spec. For coding you would probably need to code some thing for your car for example what type of parking sensors you have(rear and front, just rear, none) all those basic coding can be done with VCDS or OBD11 no need for ODIS. Not sure on this one but if everything is normal it should work normaly. I have done upgrade in my car but from MIB2 Swing to MIB2 Amundens similar story but simplifyed because i didn't have to replace gateway. Hope it helps.

For Apple car play you would need better USB port you probably have standar one. Standard one is ok for andoid phones they work fine i retrofited similar unit and didn't change port. Down here you have three links one is from skoda parts site where you can see connector and part number of it this one support Iphone. Next two are links to yt videos where is explainde how to change it. One is fitting and one cooding. It's done on golf but same procedur on any VAG car. For cheaper replacment you can buy used one if you find it or new anywhere else this is just an example. Hope this help https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/5q0035726n-usb-connector-skoda-39614.html

As my knowledge goes CP is connected to VIN so that means if you have old cars VIN on it its most likely that CP is not removed properly. If you have OBD11 or VCDS scan car and check if you get error on gateway or 5F unit(multimedia)(probably on both) about CP. In that case CP is not removed or disabled properly and could leed in the problem of activating smartlink and some other functions. The picture that you post is unit swing from facelift model and not all of those support smartlink(i think that one on picture doesn't support it) if you have app button and phone I think it should with activating of MIB FEC/SWaP code(for codes that your multimedia support can be checked). If screen is same size and design like on the picture not with some plastic edge around it its facelift unit. I hope this help in any way.

I think that for rear camera you need module 76 and enable one thing there, what you enabled on 5F is just that button for camera that doesn't work in your case(as i know). Try with this link if it would help you, someone had similar problem just on VW which is same. https://forum.obdeleven.com/thread/2295/module-rear-ops

As far as i know you need modul 76 to activate it, this modul is for parking assist. I think you need to change setting in adaptation in case of higline camera(not sure tho). I would first check compatibility of camera for your MIB2 unit i know some units don't support camera but in codes you find some elements for enabling it(if it helps your unit is for PQ platform, it is a little different as MIB for MQB, and i think this model was for VW cars as i see red buttons, skoda had green but this shouldn't be problem). example my old unit had code in 5F to turn on camera but the unit it self didn't support it as my reaserch went(same for some other things like vrs boot screen just make system not working properly).

You can find what you need on this link for the model of your car. https://vwts.ru/sk_rapid_5j.html

Usually it is located in the boot under side trim. Don't know where they put it when it's installed by the dealer but OEM style they are back there on the left side. A tip, to get side trim down you would need to remove rear seats to get to all screws and clips. If you need anything else just ask.

No problem, tag me when you install those facelift DRLs :)

Device part number: 5Q0035874B is the unit in the glove box(I have the same unit now), screens part number is not shown here. If insted of B you had C you could have grid menu. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/468471-infotainment-retrofitting/ Here is a link where it explains those part numbers of units but long story short you have almost everything as C just not grid menu. However, there is a posibility to load the software of the C unit to your unit so you could have grid menu. But there is a cacht, it involves opening the unit and do some stuf. Not shure how but I have seen some one do it. I want to learn more about that(probably exploring more in the summer after exams) and if I found something I can contact you. I would probably write it in my project thread. The one thing that I need to do is getting rapid picture on the unit because I don't have it. As far as i know my unit came from superb and have some coded things that could't be in rapid. I still have some problems with it but slowly everything will be perfect :) I include link to my thred if you would be interested

If you get the faclift headlight on prefacelift car I would be happy if you post it. I would like to do the same mod in future after other plans. For infotainment if you want the grid menu on amundsen you need to have the unit with leter c at the end. Those units have software with grid menu. I fited in my car amundsend unit (I had swing before) and would love grid menu which looks better but the one that i have got for good deal. I am doing a thread in project page and in a few days I would also add amundsen fiting proces in it if you would be interested.

Depends on which infotainment you have and you wan't to put in for example if you have MIB you shouldn't need to do much re-wiring stuff except if you do swing to bolero/amundens conversion or vice versa because of different unit locations.

Check fuses. If you changed motor and switch with working one it could be something like that. I have nearly identical problem with passenger rear but in my case switch light still works but switch don't. Also when I try to move it with driver switch whene presed to go down it make a sound as it would want to go but it doesn't. In my case all fuses are ok. For cheking fuses: fuse box is located under the steering wheel under plastic. If you have manual, look which fuse is for power window and the side you want, take it out and check(you have white plastic on fuse box cover, this is a tool or just use some pliers). If you don't have manual https://fuse-box.info/skoda/skoda-rapid-2016-2018-fuse-box-diagram#google_vignette here are all fuse boxes that were in rapid for left and right hand drive just look for correct version that you have i think all rapids after 5.2015 have version 2(not 100% sure).
