That's because the engine isn't running, it's the normal lights that come on when the ignition is on but the engine isn't running. They all turn off as normal when car is started. As I said earlier there are no warning lights and no errors logged in vagcom.

They have been for some time, its always been available even in the Octavia RS and other Octavias as an option in CZ and other countries although the Skoda unit has green lighting, think its also an available in UK now.

Surface Mount Technology, you ain't changing them with a normal soldering iron. You need specialists equipment including an oven. I've worked with them on projects from scratch but I'm not even sure if they can be replaced once they're on.

I thought you were rich1068 for a moment there. He's always trying to wind me up by saying stuff like that. I don't mind the interior being like an R32 just glad my cars faster. :D
