Retrofit Project

[Shahoff]

Will work with Bolero but will be no maps. However then you do not need to run ANY extra cables as standard  dashboard cable will do.

Thanks! Was it too hard to unmount existing dashboard? Screws involved or just clips?

You have any advice for an amateur like me? Where to start first on cockpit and how many hours to allocate?

Mechanically its not big deal , but you need dealer or someone who have an access to VW database to reprogram  your dashboard and  register the keys. This usually cost some money as well.

That's great, less cables to take care and run. But the key reg didn't think at all :-)

If you got any other fitting advice or guide, please let me know.

Thanks again

Thank you,

lio

Shahoff.  

 

Do you have a list of what needs to be coded to make the virtual cockpit work?  

I can't get the map on mine.

 

Regards.

This is not simple coding. You need to have an access to VW online Database via ODIS or similar. The main reason is IMMO keys are sitting inside the dash.

3) Borderless mirror , I had one retrofitted on my SUP3 and its brilliant. Mirror on its way as well.
 

 

Hey there Shahoff, thank your for your post. 

Can you please tell me the reference of the bordless mirror that you installed as there are multiple references out there and I'm not sure which one will work on my Karoq.

Thanks

Hey there! Thank you for your quick reply. Yes I'm from europe (France to be more exact).

Ok for the one with the front camera. But it is still Plug and Play?

 

Thanks again!

[Shahoff]

3G0857511AD  is not FLA mirror , just normal mirror but without border.

[Big_Ra]

So thanks to Shahoff I installed my bordeless mirror. There were to videos that helped me with the installation:

 

 

 

 I know it is not that hard but when you're doing it for the first time it really helps to watch some of them before.

 

[Shahoff]

Windscreen changed, camera installed, wires run to the point. But need to connect , code and calibrate camera assist. 

 

 

 

Process is complex

 

That how  its looks like from inside now.

Hi. 
 

sorry if this has been covered before. But how do you retrofit TPMS? I have a KODIAQ L&K of October 2019 and this is something I would like to add as well. System only tells me if tire pressure is down. But would like to have TPMS. Thanks. 

[johnka]

Hi, congratulations on your great work.

 

I am very interested about the acc retrofit. Could you please tell us what were the steps and parts required to make it work? Any information about would be great!

 

Thanks

This are exact parts on the photo + cables. A bit of VCDS coding require as well.

Retrofit Traffic Sign Recognition and maybe Lane assist:

Hi, I ordered my Karoq with the option of Traffic Sign Recognition but Skoda forgot to install it. They reimbursed me but now I'm without and since I travel a lot I would like to know if it can be retrofitted. My dealer has never done and doesn't want to do it. 

Can anyone assist here?
