Roof racks for roof rails Octy III VRS wagon
MarkF1963 replied to Tupperware's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Hi Tupperware, Sorry for the delay in replying ... haven't been on here for a while. No scratches at all on the shiny black rails and I have taken the bars off and on many times. I'll post some pics when I get a chance. -

Hi Tupperware, I have Whispbars on my 2015 RS Wagon. Only takes a few minutes to fit (and remove), look great and they are very quiet. Because I thought the aluminium finish would stand out too much on an all black car with Black pack, I wrapped mine in 3M Carbon Fibre (about $A100 from Supercheap auto). Cheers, Mark -

Sorry to hear. I've had my VRS wagon since Oct 14 and after 11000kms , my Columbus with Canton upgrade appears to have the same problem as yours. The only audio coming through the speakers are from the parking sensor warning sounds. I took it to the Skoda service department today and they have asked to keep the car overnight as despite doing a software update and no error codes appearing, the sound is still mute from the unit. I hope your car gets sorted soon as well so you can enjoy a great car. -
I bought one of these for when I go surfing and its works perfectly with KESSY equipped cars ... http://www.soulsurf.com.au/Accessories/other-accessories/key-storage-security-lock-ultimate-surf-accessories-online

Thanks, it drives even better than I expected! I paid $48000 Australian dollars which is about 33000 Euro. Optioned with Panoramic sunroof, Tech Pack (Adaptive Cruise Control, Automatic Parking Assistant, KESSY, Canton Sound system), and leather seats. -

Hi, Thanks for posting the pics ... panoramic sunroof looks great! Have any owners noticed an increase in interior noise (with roof fully closed) due to all that glass replacing an insulated roof on the wagon? I have already ordered an Octavia vRS petrol Estate on their Australian release in March this year and after seeing your pics would love to add the sunroof to the order but this and the possible extra wait period (dealer can't tell if it will make a difference) has me in two minds on whether to get it. I also believe it will lift the vRS's sombre dark interior.
