Which version of the BCm would I need?

At the moment I have installed 5Q0937084CG.

It was quite an effort to do it but it was worth it.

Es war ein ziemlicher Aufwand, dies zu tun, aber es hat sich gelohnt.

 

 

Also with light animation?

Has anyone found anything here for the purpose of light animation?

Unfortunately, the colleagues from CZ only want to do something for €€ and don't tell anything.

I think the BCM would have to be faked.

Is there anyone who had theirs converted in CZ and has a before/after scan of the car?

So far, it's only possible for me to open it, which dims the lights.

 

Thanks

So I finally managed to find a serious company to do a facelift conversion on my 2016 superb. We included the tail lights and

self driving feature (I think it’s called travel assist and traffic assist)

Nice veri nice 

where did you do this conversion and what were the costs? if you want to tell us some details

Thanks, yes no problem, any info I have I’ll be happy to share. So after 3 months of useless conversations with a company somewhere north of London, I realised they’re not gonna be able to do it as they didn’t know much about the process, so I found this guy in Bucharest Romania and after contacting him he explained everything to me, every step. Not sure if I’m allowed to share company names but if I do, I’m happy to share the info. (Videos are very helpful 😉)

 

So I bought from here the headlights, bumper (was lucky enough to find on ebay a bumper with absolutely everything in it - foglights, plastics, trims, wiring, headlight washers, everything) . Meanwhile I bought a camera as well as I found it much cheaper on ebay (brand new). I had the tail lights as well (bought them from CZ) they are cheaper than UK (thank you brexit). Everything else was ordered by the guys in Bucharest. 
Cost - I payed about 250£ per headlight, bumper was 700£ (if lucky to find it intact as breakers will sell bumper parts separately as they make more money). Camera was 215£ but unfortunately I didn’t get the one with part number ending in C (latest one) because the guy from the company in UK didn’t know it’s better to get the latest version). 
I had to replace the windscreen as mine didn’t have the camera bracket, I should’ve fit the windscreen for facelift model 2020- but even though I gave the guy that fitted the windscreen the vin number from a brand new superb, he still fitted the windscreen for the pre facelift model (old camera bracket). Luckily the guys from Bucharest were smart enough to 3D print an extra bracket to hold the 2Q0 camera into the old style camera bracket so no big deal. 
Control modules - BCM, latest the better, not much difference in price between them, headlight range control module again latest, gateway, and if I’m not mistaken the new steering wheel has some sort of control module.

All of these plus fitting and coding (swap codes) the guys charged me about 4000€. 
 

Very Very important - it seems like all the control modules need to be brand new. Something to do with VW changing the rules in march 2022. Not sure what's that about but that’s what I’ve been told. 
Everything works perfectly. You need a few extra plastics like the wheel arches and another couple of plastics. (Number 11 both sides) from the picture posted.

thank you for the details, I really appreciate it, I also started a retrofit, I have most of the parts but I don't know who can implement them, I didn't understand 4000€, that's what the guys took, or 4000€ plus the parts

So included in price was BCM, headlight range control module, gateway, new steering wheel (including control module) and new radar as the old pre facelift radar doesn’t work with the new BCM.

Fitting and Rewiring tail lights, fitting and coding control modules, Rewiring fog lights, rewiring new radar, new wires for camera to the radar and camera to the BCM. 

how long did this operation take? did you go from the UK specifically for this or are you Romanian?

So I am romanian, which helped cause I’ve been driving quite a few times to Romania before but I live in UK. This time, yes I went specially  for this but the guys prepared everything in advance, (buying the parts (control modules and steering wheel). With that the car was ready within 24 hours. Usually they can fit everything within 12 ish hours but there’s a couple of days waiting for the swap codes from VW in CZ. I believe the guys got someone working for VW in CZ, that’s why they can do this and so quick

Wir haben die Rücklichter

 

It's already great. I'm concerned about the running light when opening/closing.

In your video, it only works when you open it.
The taillights slowly dim - that's the way it should be. When closing, however, it should be the other way around. It doesn't do that to you, the taillights just go out. I have exactly the same thing.

Can the taillight part number 3V9945207B of the facelifted Kombi SportLine model be directly installed on the facelifted Sedan model?

I would doubt it.

 

3V0 specifies all superbs

3V9 is estate

3V5 is hatch 

 

so the fact they make a 3v9 and a 3v5 suggests there will be differences. 

I was thinking today how it's such a waste that they don't even install the "highline" lights to all facelift Superbs.

 

If you have an SE you still get the older style lights (but with all LED?).

So they have two styles of facelift headlight but three tails, lowline, highline and smoked highline. I don't see how that's actually helpful to the person buying it. Especially as the taillights are arguably the best bit of the facelift?

Definitely no.

It's also the same story with the pre-facelift Superb too.

There doesn't seem to be a noticeable difference from the outside, or is it a numbering difference inside Skoda to make it easier to distinguish?

I'm trying to replace the taillights with SportLine black with dynamic turn indicators

The taillights of the two models look almost the same, I don't know if the internal installation wiring is common.

I get that, but if VW could save money and make a single part, they would, the fact they have made 2 means there will be something different, not sure what though.

The same could b said about the length of the car - both sedan and wagon look to b the same length, but they're not!

The sedan is 6mm longer than the wagon.

 

Don't take the risk and buy the correct one for ur car.

 

The front of the car is exactly the same - sedan or wagon.

The rear is not.  

 

There's a reason why the part number sets start with 3V5 and 3V9.

Different part numbers as they are different parts

 

Taking a look at the hatch/estate in the latest brochure, the angle the boot lid intersects looks very different and would explain the need for alternative parts.

Hope so, it's more expensive to try

After everyone's analysis, it is more secure to buy 3V5, the cost of trial and error is relatively high

Thank you so much, I don't have any doubts about this picture
