You need to mimic the resistance of the speaker. for this you need a 7.5 ohm resistance. 7.5 ohm at 12v in theory would produce 19.2w of heat. if you can find a 7.5ohm resistor capable of dissipating 20w of heat that would be fine, but lower heat ones are available cheaper. I chose to split the heat dissipation in half, with each 15 ohm resistor carrying 10w of the heat. total resistance in parallel is then 7.5ohm. For me it would be much more reliable long term.

I don’t have the car anymore, but I’m 99% sure it’s petrol engine side.

You can’t access it from the top. it’s under the drivers side headlight. only access is through the wheel arch.

It’s in the drivers side wheel arch if I remember correctly 👍🏻

I used a male plug so it was plug and play, something link this https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08P9J9V1H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_ZSD88GD34KFDEKYEASY3 Then just 2 15 ohm resistors in parallel soldered to that connector. quite easy in the end.

You can disable it by unplugging it (drivers side wheel arch) but it generates an error. 2 x 15 ohm, 10w resistors will remove the error. it’s heaven to drive without it….. you just have to take a few torx bits out, reach up and unplug it. took me around 15 minutes

What year and spec Octavia do you have?

To enable the Coming home / leaving home function all the time. By following the below instructions the DRL strips + rear tail lights will come on whenever you unlock the car (irrelevant of the outside light condition or the position of the light switch) They will stay on as long as the car is unlocked (irrelevant of ignition position). If you leave the car unlocked and don’t do anything, they will go out completely after around 10 mins. They will go off around 1 – 2 seconds after you lock the car. Once the ignition is switched on everything returns to normal, once the car is locked everything returns to normal (if you leave the side lights on or the park lights on for example) As always mods are carried out at your own risk.
