Hi, just bought a new 1.4 se copa, & am well chuffed with it. Just a few things. When you switch on cruise control, is there a digital display somewhere that shows you what the speed is set at, or do you just have to watch the speedo? Also, the interior lights on the roof, next to them is 2 sensor looking things. On my golf I had, these were for the telephone, but my ibiza doesn't have bluetooth. Lastly, when using the climatronic, & I press the button to point the air to my face, it doesnt seem very powerful, but when I press the other button to point it at my chest area it seems more powerful. Maybe I just need to have a play with it, as I'm not to sure about it yet. Cheers.

1. No, just press the button when you're at the speed you want and it'll stay there. can catch you out if you hit the "return to previously set speed" button so get used to which ones which quickly! (or be better at remembering what the last speed you cruised at was)
2. Probably for telephone but with nothing behind them
3. No idea as I've got the oldscool dials version.

for the climate control, the 'body' one sends air from the 4 vents, whereas the 'face' one sends abit of air through them 4, and abit through the 2 side grids on the flat of the dash, so it seems less powerful as it gets divided up abit, but means its directed toward the ceiling of the car, so depends how tall ya are to how effective it is!
Cruise is indicated by the green symbol in the dials been on when its activated, the speed is displayed on the digital display in km/h and mph on the dials.
With the climate control, it works best if you just leave it on Auto AC mode as it will do the rest for you. I never have to touch mine, ever!

Is there any way to turn the digital display into MPH? My golf had it, & was so much easier. Or maybe I'll just have to work out in KM lol. Also, can I install the USB CUP into my car? The dealer told me it came with it, but it didn't? Im fairly happy just using AUX, but think it could be just like using a mobile when changing tracks on my ipod.
Don't think it can be changed to MPH, bit annoying, same story with most new vw audi group cars.
Retro-fitting USB CUP is possible but complicated and expensive, not really worth it, don't think anyone on here has done it.
