Heko rear wind deflectors too big

[Joe41]

I just bought a set of heko wind deflectors for my skoda octavia mk1 fronts in in two minutes rears seem to be 20mm at least too big,besides the estate rears being more square mines are tapered as they should be tried fitting them and they are bowed out and will not fit any idea's?

Sounds like you may have Mk2 ones then, as the estate are more square ended both ends. Did you get the ones you bought off ebay?

Bought them from gumtree brand new in the box the box open though and said on the rapper " skoda octavia l 4D 97R (+OT SED)".Like you say i think there mk2 ones its possible that the guys swapped them over for some reason just did not check the rears for size when i bought them.

I remember when i fitted the rears on mine they were a bit of a squeeze. Bit gentle persuasion will get them in. Just dont be too rough with them haha

Until pointed out by my daughter,l was trying to fit them on the wrong side ! (The ends are different angles).Swapped over they fitted ok.Mine are for an estate.

[Joe41]

It does not matter i could add some lubricant to them there not going to fit haha

[Joe41]

The fact is the bags were opened that had the rears ones in,for some reason hes swapped then over.
