I've never heard of them going off any time except in an accident (when they're supposed to) so I'm sure you'll be fine. They only pop the back of the bonnet up so it doesn't smash the widescreen in a head-on collision...
Hi, I'm sorry but I don't have the answer. You have the correct one and it worked perfectly for me and others so I'm not sure what to suggest. Do you have pictures you can post up? Somebody might be able to help if they can see the problem.
Parking sensors still work but only visually on screen. You need to add a little speaker if you want to keep the beeps (I didn't bother but others have).
There is a download link to the installation manual PDF on that page which shows you how it works too. 👍
Feel free to post up some pics when you're all sorted!
Yes, this little module connects between the head unit and the car and allows you to access everything from the right multi-function steering wheel stalk. Just press both top and bottom buttons on the stalk at the same time to access the car's menu screens. Works a treat!

There is a common fault with these - the cable is poorly positioned so, after time, the action of the screen opening and closing damages the cable. There are many posts on here about it and how to fix it so I would take a look at that before anything else. 👍
Check it again today after 24 hours of charge and the car fired up in milliseconds! Loads of errors - ABS, ESP, Braking System Fault, Engine Fault, Clock & Stereo reset to zero, windows only going up and down in increments instead of one shot... But gave it 5 minutes to compose itself while I...
Update: Finally got enough power into it to light up the ignition in position one and open the passenger door to access the bonnet release. New heavy-duty battery with 5 year guarantee is completely dead. As in, not a single volt in it - never seen one as dead as this before! I'll try and charge...
Well today has been interesting to say the least!
Came outside and went to get in the car and the keyfob wouldn't unlock the doors. It wouldn't do anything at all in fact so I assumed dead battery in the fob. So went back inside and grabbed the spare fob... same issue. So now I'm thinking, dead...
I'm sure there is a process (detailed in the Owners Manual so you can find it online) where you can recode a fob to your car. It's something like turn key to first position and hold button down on fob for 10 seconds...
The MKI badges like yours in the picture above are bolted on from behind. The MKII ones are just stuck on though and you can get those off quite easily by getting a length of cotton behind it and sawing away at the adhesive. Hope that helps.
