I would post up pics of them on my car BUT :wall: , took it for an Aircon service at the dealer, it packed in when it was roasting, apparently it is the codes in the ecu have gone haywire, they will have to flash to latest  software, then I take it back to Revo to have Reflashed again, but Skodas computer has gone down now so have caps but no car!

Sorry to update you with this I tried and tried to get the oil cap to go back together at an angle, it will only fit one way so will not fit a m2, will have posted earlier but I was without my car, sorry guys

You can see that the cap has cuts to fit the base. I made new cuts with a cutter knife to be able to turn the cap on its base.
Cannot see clear on your pics how these original cuts are aligned, but it worked on the R8 cap.

You must of given up too easy, I have got mine fitted to the mk2 tfsi engine. Needed to cut 2 extra slits to get it lined up, it can be done.

My water cap was a bit loose where as the old one clicked into position and wouldnt come undone with a good old twist so ive fitted a small o ring to the top thread so its nice and tight now and they look so much nicer than the standard ones.
Once again thanks to Scott and Lloyd.

Better not break the lugs, as the oil cap can become sticky and then all the power put on the cap should get into the base.
Best way is to make extra slits with a cutter knife. :happy:

Does it have a part number on it ?? Although the seat looks imprinted ??

Or does it pop out ( the whole carbon bit )

Its the standard engine cover mate but ive added the carbon fibre part as the original piece that was on there started to lift and just looked untidy so i made a new piece and stuck it on. I bought a sheet of real carbon fibre from ultimate dubs last year about 2'x5' for £20 then made the engine cover part and the number plate surrounds as seen below. It could do with a new Seat Sport sticker as its not the best if im honest.
