I just (i say I when in fact it was my friend, but work with me here) wired a 100 watt amp to the boot for a double sub box I built. there is a hole on the nearside (UK Models) of the chassis, underneath the glove box that allows wiringto be fed through. My mate bent a metal coat hanger up to hook it through. it's easy enough to feed this wire and a 2phono wire under the trunking. the only real problem we encountered was the hinge on the back seat but we got round it with a little common sense

Fitting a bluetooth mic
mwoodhall82 replied to mwoodhall82's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
I've fitted it now. Behind stereo, to the right. Taped into the crease of the plastic work under the steering wheel (out of view as well). Fed into plastic trunking around door edge for approx 60cm now pokes out by top of window. Mic bigger than would've liked, but looks like an alarm sensor in addition to other security so I'm very pleased -

I was gonna try this, but I didn't know of the efficiency. I'll give it a blast at dinner time to try. It will probably work out just great. I like to over complicate a lot of things!!! -
Howdy Just having bought an Octavia, I wanted to fit a car stereo with bluetooth in, as I do a lot of driving for work and I want to link my blackberry up (and be all executive n ****). I've got the stereo in (after-market Mutant stereo) but instead of a built in mic, it has a wired mic to be fed through to wherever. I can sort the trunking out along the side of the window (as I want the mic to be by my head, to the right by the corner of the sun visor. As said, I know how to remove the trunking along the window, but I can't seem to figure out how to remove the dash to feed the wire through to the trunking. Can anyone help, offer assistance or at least tell me where the fixing screws are? Any help would be gratefully received

Howdy everyone. I'm Martin, and I've recently taken on the ownership of Skoda Octavia GLXi 1.6i, in Dark metallica grey. 1998 'S' Reg, 44,500k on the clock. It was a reasonable price, and to be honest with other cars in my price range and the age I was looking at, this was just slightly older than I wanted. Whilst looking around though, it's strange that this is the only car I wanted to test drive (aside, of course, from the Bugatti). Now, I love it. It's a gorgeous car, with some expected body scratches, but generally in great condition. Moving to this from a Pug 106 is such an eye opener. Still, enough of that. Peace out, and have fun
