@pab567 Unfortunately I don't have enough permissions or posts yet to PM :( very happy for you to PM me if thats possible and keen to get the right bits from you. Many thanks

@pab567 If there is any guidance that you could give I would be very grateful. I also appreciate that these sites are voluntary, so there is no rush. After working with VW Caravelles over the years, I am surprised that Skoda went down this route of separate units for a simple head unit. Cheers Al.

@nta16 Thanks for this and from what I have see on this forum I'm properly impressed with the help from the community. Thanks for the link to the VCDS group. I'll add myself on there. All the best Alasdair

I do have VCDS and know hoe to use it to code parts tot a car. No idea if that will help in this case.

Thanks you for the quick reply, so the new head unit part number is 6V0 919 604 B The car VIN is TMBFA6NJ8HZ079470 AS I said it is a basic 1.0 MPI with what appears to be a very basic radio. Ideally I'd liek to upgrade using this headset if possible, but fairly sure I need a glove box unit and the cable to go between them. This maybe a silly question, but do I need a new glove box for this to fit? Many thanks in advance. Cheers Al

I hope to forum users can help me. My daughter as a Skoda Fabia 2016 MPI - very basic but a good car. I need to replace the basic stereo in it. It has basic bluetooth. I purchased what I think is the Bolero head unit from eBay and after reading the various posts here I now appreciate that I need a unit that fits in the glove box? As far as I am aware we don't have a unit in the glove box. So my questions are. What head unit do I need for Carplay What unit do I need for the glove box Is there any additional cables? Part number would be great. I have upgraded my wife's VW Caravelle with head units etc, so I am happy doing this. However, various people have posted that the units need to be coded by Skoda before they will work in a car? Any advice gratefully received.

Hey everyone, based in Glasgow and have just got a Skoda fabia for my daughter. I regularly use VCDS for sort out my wife's VW Caravelle Looking for advice on getting an upgraded head unit with carplay
