Got my eyes set on a set of eibach B12s. Steering wheel has been put on hold for now haha. My old one is MFSW anyway
-
Comparing photos online, the old buttons look like they have the same profile? Also got quoted approx 1000 pound sterling for a new steering wheel from my local dealer.

I read somewhere on here a chap had fitted fabia buttons to another wheel onto his Octavia and it worked, but I can't find the post now. I already have maxidot so it might not have any problems. I'll let you know how I go.... Just need to find a wheel with a cover now.

I'm thinking of doing the same as I have the 4 spoke wheel with the Pre FL badge and I hate it! Are you able to share the parts required?

Yeah, I bought the car then found out the previous owner had resprayed it without primer. Reflector is already on the way. -

Octavia Scout 2010 1.8 TFSI exhaust steel tip?
vortex1018 replied to northturton's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Well it does look a lot better as is and Australia is known for it's stupid laws (for example my supposedly 118kw MkII FL is considered a "high powered vehicle", just because it was made in 2009, as opposed to one made in 2010 although it's the same model year!) so I think I'm just going to leave it that way. Thanks fellas -

So they look like this, you won't be able to see the exhaust unless you're looking up into it. Just worried I might have difficulty getting a roadworthy certificate/ safety inspection pass if I cut it. -

Sorry for bumping an old thread. My tips just arrived today. Instructions say I may need to cut the exhaust. Is it absolutely necessary? -
I have been seeing more and more skodas. Don't know if it's always been this way and I've just never noticed?

Thanks Jed, Freshly cleaned and waxed!

Hi all, just bought my very first Skoda not long ago, an Octavia mkII FL. I had only heard of the brand name from Top Gear when Clarkson reviewed the then new yeti, but never driven or seen one before. When I went to a test drive for the first time, I couldn't believe how nice this car was. Since then, I've fallen in love with how nice the car drives and how clever the features and the design is. I've already ordered a bunch of goodies from Super Skoda and am planning on installing other mods, so watch this space! Here's a shot of my Octavia with the Gold Coast sunset.
