Hi All,

Bought myself a second hand Octavia vRS Yesterdy. Black Magic , 51 Plate, 30 K on the clock.... Very impressed with the performance and the gearing seems to go on forever.

1st mod is to put in my Alpine Headunit, followed instruction on the site to remove standard. All good so far, but I need to run the high voltage input for the alpine to either the battery or the fuse box. Any body fitted an AlpineCDA 7893R or similar to their octavia and experience the same issue ?

Thanks.

Paid 7,999 Great British Pounds for it...

Hello and welcome to Briskoda :wavey:

Congratulations on purchasing such an excellent vehicle. I've been looking in the My Ice forum for the answer to your queston but couldn't find anything - will have another look for you.

Welcome on board!

Hello and Welcome:D

Goods choice,you can start modifying it once you've sorted the stereo out!!!

get on the slippery slope and join the rest of us!!!

Thanks gents,

I am sure that the bug will get me, have already been through a number of sites relating to Vag 1.8 T tuning. Also like the idea of remote start idea...

Going to put back in the standard stereo and go for a drive. I have had trouble putting the keys down...

Welcome!

Take the permanant 12v feed for the headunit off the bottom of the relay plate under the drivers side bottom dash panel. Look for a 10mm nut on the bottom with 30 written above it.
