select music on the phone then select BT audio on your HU and it streams it through but the telephone functions are all still available through maxidot and MFSW. -
Bolero - Factory BT - Iphone 4
garfie replied to james_19742000's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
i have iphone 4 and factory bluetooth and mine works fine both telephone and BT audio i picked mine up in may and was a feb build so i don't think your going to have any problems but get the dealer to show you pairing etc -
the offset for these is 42 not 50 but i believe they will still fit ok i have bought the same ones for my winter fit but mine is a L&K not a Vrs

great find thanks

BFG is British Forces Germany when we bring a car across to germany or buy one in germany we are required it undergoes a light check if less than 3 years old Full MOT style test if over 3 yrs within 28 days of arrival or purchase and even though the flatbeam is sufficent to pass tuv or mot it is not for some unknown reason sufficent for the BFG authorities
-
The problem is that flat beam won't pass the BFG lights test Flat beam will pass TUV or MOT but not BFG!!!! so it's either halogen of xenon LHD lights required
-
If thats the case then i might just put the LHD halogens in for the test and swap em straight out again and re ebay em and reinstall and flat beam the xenons as the flat beam will pass the german tuv but not the damn silly BFG lights test how easy is it to swap the complete headlight units? is it dealer fit or can it be DIY'ed
-
Like that idea but can i fit these when my car is set up for zenons? i know you can go the other way with an adapter cable
-
looks like i'm going to have to bite the bullet on this then as i'm coming back to uk after about a year so not going to sell the rhd as will need to get em refitted any octavia owners on the continent prepared to lend me theirs for the test?

I am in the process of buying a Octavia Estate L&K 2.0 CR and it will come with RHD xenons Can these be re aligned to point for LHD or will i need to replace them with LHD units Unfortunately just setting them via the maxidot for tourist will not pass the required inspection as an alternative can i temporarily fit halogen units for the inspection

How long to obtain a build week
garfie replied to robzer's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
I ordered my L&K estate 2.0CR at the start of november was given potential build week 5 notified today that the car is already built just a shame i can't collect till end of april due to being stuck in canada with work but at least it'll be on the new plate but order to delivery could have been as quick as 12 -14 weeks better than the 20 weeks+ i was expecting maybe the delay issue has been worked out -
Hi all, I am returning to the Skoda Brand after a 6 year absence. Have been lurking on here again for a few weeks now and thought i had better say hello again. I had an early Vrs Mk1 Hatch which i loved but she didn't so we swapped to a Hyundai Tuscon which i hated and since have had Renault Megane R26's but have decided it's time to act my age and reduce my tax, insurance and fuel costs and have ordered a 2.0 diesel L&K with a few extra trimmings. have been given build week 5 but not collecting till April 11 due to a 4 month trip to Canada So Hi All and i wish you all a merry xmas and a prosperous new year.
