Hi, 

 

I have an octavia 3 2015, it originally came with a MIB 1 6 inch screen. I bought a 5Q0035874C MIB 2 with firmware  MY18 firmware 0478 with a 8 inch screen the one that is just glass crom Pub567. The question what camera its compatible with this car and unit, where can I get a second hand one at decent price €300 its a bit steep. Beside activating it with VCDS, where doest it connect on the back of the unit? 

 

Is 5E9 054 634 the correct part number for this car? 

I found one on aliexpress that also have washer and looks complete for €100, woukd this work?

I fitted a very similar camera on my '18 plate vRS with a factory fitted MIB2 and it works perfectly.

 

You should check the boot handle dimensions though, earlier cars have a smaller cutout so the OEM camera may not fit without cutting the boot lid.

 

You might want to see this thread, it covers both Chinese and OEM installation including a wiring diagram for a OEM highline camera:

Thank you fot the info. On Skoda site they say "OCTAVIA COMBI built until CW 31/2018 (5E9 054 634)" so should. E ok, but you right I'll remove the handle and measure the cut-out. 

 

The one from the link you sent it looks ok, and it come with the adapter so its plug and play. does it have the buttons on the side like the original?

 

The camera in the first post is indeed a Chinese plug and play solution. This won't have the extra buttons/modes...

 

If you look at the second post, it's where I fitted a OEM highline version from AuDU Auto, much like the one you linked:

 

This does have the buttons/modes although installation is more involved

Thank you. This camera require calibration isn't it or is going to work without as well?

It'll work without calibration although the lines will be more accurate after correct calibration

ok. thank you for your help. I think I should measure the existing handle first. 🤲

I bought this one a while back and fitted to my 2015 estate with MIB2.

If you go this route you will also need these connector pins to connect the two camera wires to the quadlock connector

Then just need to code the unit with either vcds or obdeleven to activate the camera.
