I have done the mic and bluetooth install (I wrote the how to). I have fitted the footwell lights. Interested to see how you get on with the autolights.

 

I can't be bothered to remove the door cards to fit the LED handle lights.

 

I am thinking of fitting a flashing third brake light mod (saw it on a fabia at the meet).

Thanks for the how to, I followed it to the letter (well apart from forgetting to remove one of the screws from the glovebox - and I don't think the how to including 'Swear profusely at inanimate objects') - I'm a little skeptical over the Auto Lights, I'd have much preferred to go OEM but it seemed like a massive PITA

I was under the impression that it's only the handle that needs to come out rather than the whole door card, although maybe I haven't done as much research as I thought! haha!

 

I'm not sure about the flashing brake light mod, I've only ever seen it on Saxos / Corsas ....... which immediately turns me off the idea!  Be interesting to see how it's done though!

I will have to find out as if it's a simple mod it might be worth doing. Where did you order the bits from?

I got the bits from Skodaparts.com, I think they can be sourced a tiny bit cheaper but was ordering the Auto Light Switch anyway.  Only ordered the fronts £29.53 inc p&p

 

http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/85636-add-an-illumination-in-internal-door-handle-from-lk-to-vrs/  Is where the best information is!

 

ps. don't ask why the driver and passenger lamps are different prices!

I remember that post now.

It's really not too hard as long as you take a few safety precautions and err on the side of safety.

I have two controllers for sale if you need one and they are compatible with your car. They are listed in the 'For Sale' section.

Have the auto lights been fitted yet? any pictures etc?

Arrived this morning, so i'll have a look at fitting tomorrow.  Reading up on it - the CH/LH isn't great (CH just tricks the car into thinking that the side lights have been left on for 30secs, and the LH doesn't work at all on the Octy) - but auto is what I was after, so i'll let you know tomorrow!

Oh I was kinda hoping that the CH/LH would work a well as the autolights. I wait for your comments.

And the results are.......?

How are the auto lights?
