Upgrading the Interior Lights & Changing the Country from UK to Australia - warranty question

Featured Replies

My Fabia is less than a year old so if I get someone to change the country from UK to Australia what will I have to remember to do before I take it to the dealer for the annual service so that they don't twig the mod? Also, which of these bulbs would be best in my quest for a brighter interior light?

Would the Skoda dealer say I'd invalidated the warranty with these changes?

Also, I'm a newbie so any advice about how to fit these interior lights would be appreciated :)

I've changed mine to a australia to get the big MPH and even took it in without changing it back and they didn't even care so I guess its not really something they worry about.

Thanks, abovethresh

No worries! Sorry for little help with the lights.. I haven't modded mine so have no helpful info on that! :)

What's the uk to aus mod?? What's it do and for what models?? Cheers

I don't have maxi dot on my fabia so I'm guessing I can't do it : (

My Monte has Australia settings and l.e.d d.r.ls.had two services with no comments from dealer.

Thanks DIZZY3 - do you have a picture of your daytime LED running lights? I'd love to see these, did you fit them yourself?

Sorry no pics, the l,e,ds are a direct replacement for the stock bulbs, the only prob, was I had to reverse the connections ( this has been discussed in previous topics.) . The l.e.d bulbs have a slight blue tint, but in my op,look better than the standard yellow bulbs.

Thanks DIZZY3, do you still have the eBay link where you bought them please?

Think I had them from WE- SELL - HIDS , but next time I think I will get Cree bulbs, have a look on e-bay you should find something there.

Thanks, pardon my ignorance, but what's the difference between HID and CREE bulbs?
