Headlight Upgrade
I remember trying to tell people this online, but they weren't having it... That was until they ran them at night. 😂

Headlight Upgrade
On a vRS they were a very expensive option. I think they were around an £800 optional extra. And, decent bulbs are around £70-£100 EACH! Mine came factory, but it took forever to find one. As for retrofitting them, yes it can be done and you'll need some loom adaptors from KUFTEC. They're around 60 euros. The xenon units are around £150/£200 for a pair, sometimes more. It's a lot of money to chuck at lights. But, as stated above, you need to check your laws. The cars with xenons auto adjust by leveling sensors on the suspension arms. Without them, you'll end up blinding people with a back end heavy car (if you've got stuff in the boot).

Was behind an SE on Sunday in Selsdon, followed it to find an old lady driving it. Reg was KK07 *** (94k miles) - I hope to see it again to leave a note for her, should she wish to sell. Extremely clean.

Possible head gasket issue on my Mk1 Octavia VRS
Already done, as I noticed the title. Correct, there's very little difference in the two. I have all the ratios on my computer, but some people just won't have it and believe in the 6-speed better. I have no idea if the box is stronger to cope with more power, but the AUQ can still output 300lbft... EDIT. Found it -

There seems to be a hell of a lot of SE's for sale currently, I'm counting over 10. Managed to add quite a lot that were missing from the list!

Fabia Mk1 with Factory Sat Nav/Maxidot
I’m amazed how many Fabia’s there are with this spec. Yet, hardly any in the Octavia range.

Octavia estate VRS rear spoiler brake light needed
Ah ok, the hatchback were ‘286 DASHBOARD SMALL CAPLESS WEDGE 12V 1.2W BULBS’, which obviously made life a little more easier. I think you linked them to me a few years back.

Octavia estate VRS rear spoiler brake light needed
Oh, you can get a replacements. To remove the standard Estate light, remove the front top trim panel inside the tailgate then lever the 3 retaining springs and and the catch out of the slots in the tailgate. Next, close the tailgate and pull the light fitting off the tailgate then separate the plug connector. To replace the bulbs, remove the 3 screws from the bulb holder. The bulbs push in. @nige8021 Are they LED’s or bulbs like the hatchback?

Octavia estate VRS rear spoiler brake light needed
Is this to replace the one that’s on there? Anything wrong with the original? I’ll also keep a look out for any vRS estate that are breaking for you.

Octavia MK1 1996 airbag problem
I think it can be done with a resistor, but someone who actually done it would have to confirm it as I'm not 100% sure.

Front Brake Pads
Most pads are designed like that (tapered ends). What you don't want is the whole pad to be tampered. Did you break/bed in the brakes correctly before any hard braking?

Fabia VRS LE Register Part Trois
No. 167 Found. Currently, for sale in Consett. 2007 Skoda Fabia VRS Special Edition Pure Drive (#167/1000) Completely stock example other than aftermarket double DINN radio (bluetooth etc). It has had 3 owners, 169,139 miles on the clock, MOT'd until 12th November 2022. Has original 6 disc changer under passenger seat. Mechanically sound car with some service history included. Has had new expansion tank fitted along with new passenger bottom ball joint and two coolant sensors as well as retrofitted Octavia VRS front brake discs with Brembo pads. Full black leather VRS interior with blue seat piping and production number stamped into the seats beneath the embossed VRS logos. As you can see it is 167/1000, a good example of this very rare model. Overall body work is is in great condition but there are a few spots that indicate the car's age. A small rust patch is visible on the bonnet near the front grill as seen in the photos. It also has other age related marks and a small dent in the passenger front quarter panel. Overall in great, clean condition for how old the car is. It isn't a brand new car so please don't expect showroom quality but it has been looked after. It's great on fuel, it's quick and picks up like it should. My son found it to be a reliable car in the short time he used it and he loved it but due to his job he changed cars. Painted gloss black front grill surround and wheels have been painted grey. It's sad to see it go but it'll sit unused otherwise and it's time someone else enjoyed it. No time wasters please, genuine enquiries only. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/763967981413408/

No. 902 Currently for sale, also in Barnsley. Fabia VRS SE #902 Very clean example of a fabia, had plenty on money spent on it since I bought the car as it wasn’t great when I bought it. Since I’ve owned the car it’s had an ASZ engine on 120k put in, been in around 3/4 month. The car had the timing belt and water pump done when the new engine went in, also had a 3 piece sachs clutch put in at the garage at the same time. Have all the receipts to prove. Absolutely no rust on the car at all. Spec: PD150 turbo PD150 headbolts 2.5” power flow straight through exhaust Gravity FMIC 312mm brakes Stance+ ultra coilovers 17” calibre motor rismo wheels All original VRS floor mats Original SE seats with no rips or tears Pioneer double din head unit Tinted back and rear windows (on prior to me owning it) The front windows don’t go down but I have been told it’s because of the window motor, have bought one just not had chance to put on yet. No AC as it had to come off due to the FMIC. Original plates will be on before the sale.
