Using dynomat to best effect in Octy II...

Did just the front doors on my Octavia I and it made a huge difference to sound quality. -
Where to install gps antenna?
mooseman4k replied to mooseman4k's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
I tried it under the dash but i wasn''t massively happy so I've run it from the hu along the dash, behind the a pillar trim and it now sits at the top of the windscreen. Shame I forgot to remove all the cds from the cd changer before I unplugged the original headunit -
I'm about to install a new headunit with gps in my octavia. The gps antenna. Is there a particular place in the octavia where it'll get good reception? It'll have to go somewhere in the dash as the cable comes out the back of the hu but I'm sure there must be others on here who have done the same.

Just thought i'd jump in on this thread. I'm thinking of getting a lower brace. (can't be bothered with the top one as by all accounts it's for show rather than anything else?). Seen it on vagparts.com part number 8n0strutbar. Can anybody tell me if this is everything I need? I had rung the audi dealer but they wanted £25 + vat and then the bolts were extra.

What to get and in what order???

Try putting some sound deadening in the doors. I did this on mine and it made the world of difference. -

Are aero wipers worth it?
mooseman4k replied to mooseman4k's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
Fitted the wipers (easiest job ever) and they're great. Just done 500 miles in the last 2 days in the pouring rain and they were a vast improvement over the old wipers. -
Anybody got the part numbers for

the plastic trim on the A Pillars for a mk1 vRS? :confused: Either the dark grey or the cream versions are fine.

Well I ordered a set so looking forward to finding out about this spring back -

I'm currently looking at the mk golf oem kit from vagparts. From what I understand there is no point in having aero wipers unless you replace the arms as well? Or have I misunderstood something? -
I've just bought an 2004 Octavia vRS. It rained today and the wipers were next to useless. I've seen aero wipers mentioned on here quite a bit. I've found them on vagparts I think with "MK4Faero" being the order number. My first question is, is this the right kit? My second is are they actually worth it? I'm not really fussed about looks, just how well they clear the windscreen.
