Hello gents,
since i am a czech boi, i asked directly at the ŠKODA's customers service in Mladá Boleslav regarding the possible infotainment switch.
I described the topic, i would say, very detaily, mentioning all the part's article numbers and even pointing out the similarities of mounting brackets, etc..,
Although ŠKODA's response was as expected... They just responded "NO" in a simple sentence...
I doubt they even tried to think about it (even tho i see that they actually created a "ticket" (E1EA79367A424) for my case...
But i am still refusing to believe that this switch is not possible. Especially considering, that the facelifted Octavia offers both infotainment systems in the same interior (throughout different trim levels).
So for sure, this thing got to be retrofitable... but i dunno...
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
