thats because its plug and play on yours, would dread to think what skoda would charge to do it on the fabia, in fact theyd probably refuse as it involves cutting wires lol

-In VAGCOM, open module 09 and ensure it is 6Q0 or 6Q1, NOT 6Q2.
-To enable cruise control choose 11 Log In, enter the code 11463.
-Open module 01, check the upper right hand corner says OOOOSG if cruise control ISN'T enabled, or GOOOSG if cruise control is enabled.

With cruise control enabled, if you now scan the car for fault codes you should get a fault saying Implausible signal from Cruise Control Switch.
