thanks for your reply 

i dont no if the gap/ depth for the unit is differnt on a octavia to a mk2 superb,

Can't confirm it, but my guess, if anything, would be that the Superb has at least the equivalent or more space than the Octavia for the headunit

we will soon find out. thanks for your help 

Kenwood provide fitting kits for various vehicles. Take a look here: https://www.kenwood.eu/files/file/car/eu/DDIN/2DIN.pdf

 

Looks like the mk2 Octavia and Superb require different fitting kits. I don’t have a Kenwood head unit myself but I have also been looking at replacing the Columbus with one.

I see you posted about a wiring harness...does it fit? Did you have to buy a new fitting kit?

 

cheers,

I’ve got this head unit fitted to my 2010 mk2, needed a wiring loom adaptor plus a canbus adaptor (for the steering wheel control and reverse information)and a new facia (from the dealer) that includes the airbag light. Fitted it all myself, my only annoyance is that if I’d got the 525 later model I wouldn’t have needed the canbus module that added another £100 to the cost!

oh and there’s a few bugs with iPod useage that kenwood have pretty much told me tough about fixing.....

Yes I no what you mean, 

I'm not sure whether it's worth the upgrade just for garmin map6
