Reversing camera fitting
As far as I have been told the dealers here in the UK don't offer a install, but I believe there is a couple of firms doing it as a retro fit, but I was impressed with the firm that did mine (as mentioned in my last post) As far as the software up date, I had my car updated after the camera fitting and no problems

What does 'tow bar preparation' actually include
I also used to tow things which was well over the weights limits but times have changed and I think poss for the better, but on saying that there are some drivers that cannot handle a car let alone a trailer, but also they go well over the top

Disable auto rear wipers
Never heard of that, but no if the front is set to Rain trigger and you don't use the rear it wont operate, but as soon as you use the rear then it operates in conjunction with the front

Disable auto rear wipers
What does that mean ?

Disable auto rear wipers
Hi have found in mine, if you turn on the front wiper on, or on rain setting, then turn on the rear wiper, it will continue to wipe occasionally (even if turned off on the stork) but if you don't turn it on in the first place it won't wipe. But if you turn the front off and back on without the rear it won't wipe

diesel volume
Hi Admitting if you are stud at the side of cars on tick over you would be able to tell the difference, but when you are in the car driving you won't tell any difference. I much prefer a diesel

Skoda tow bar for vRS Combo
I had gathered it had nothing to do with if it was prewired, and I cannot see why a Hybrid should be limited to 0kg, but I believe there is some petrol/diesel cars have the 0kg. I have been into towing most of my Driving life and most of the restrictions are due to the kerbside weight of the car, basically the heaver the car the more you can tow, there are a few other things that come into it. When I had my own transport business and had some Sprinter vans the towing limit was 3500kg but I got a van that was only 2800kg and that was no good to me as I towed a 3500 trailer so I was put onto a company that could re rate the van, so I got in touch paid the £120 (i thing) and in return received a data plate with 3500kg towing limit and no mods to the vehicle. Admitting I was not going to ask questions as I got what I needed, but wonder if something like that could be done with the 0kg that are on some of the cars nowadays

Skoda tow bar for vRS Combo
It would be nice to know the criterium for the 0kg towing limit, I have a 21 plate VRS Diesel which had no pre wiring but mine is rated at 2000kg. so why the difference ?
-
Thinking of buying a new vRs diesel
I also have the "blue" Diesel VRS (Estate) and I love it, and as far as it being diesel I much prefer it, much better on economy than the petrol and if you were on the race track it quick enough for road driving

Mirror USB charging socket
Yes you do but I don't think you can get a very short lead, as others have said it just go's from the camera to the socket
-
Mirror USB charging socket
They are on the drivers side so for RHD, the socket is a Type "C" and yes you can get a short cable, but no the power goes off with the IGN off. But I would not leave the camera running all the time any way as if it is recording by the time you twig there has been a problem it would have written over the wanted recording. Talking of "parking mode" my camera goes off with the IGN and if there is a incident it wakes up and records just for a few mins on its internal battery

Cornering function not working
Again you say standard spec, Admitting I have not tried in Sport mode but I would have thought it should work in any mode, I had Seat Leon FR and it had it on that and it worked on the Fog lights. I just assumed mine did not have the cornering function at all
