How are they to change?

So they easy to change then? Seen a few on AliExpress and eBay. Probably just buy a new one based on the price

Thanks for your help mate. I pushed it in too hard while trying to attach a satnav holder. I'm useless like
-
So is there no way to unstick the slats? It's my centre one! If buying a new one is the only way, then so be it! Thanks for the help
-
No idea what it's called, the adjustable grill style things for your blowers. I managed to break 2 of the panels, trying to put a Satnav on, oops! Anyone know how to fix them? They appear to just be sort of stuck down, anyone experienced this before?

Rust. Anyway to prevent it spreading?

The main issue is the boot. It's rusted from a poor weld joint and the paint cracked, so regardless it's not a chip issue -

1.8TSI and 2.0TSI engine failures

Yeah, the Facelifted Mk2 petrol, Engine code CCZA is the engine with the tensioner issue, depending on when a 12 plate was manufactured, it MAY have the lastest tensioner in it, but you'd have to find out. -

I should of mentioned that I have been in contact with my local Skoda garage, which is a 2 hour drive away. And they said it needs all the Skoda service stamps. Which it hasn't had since 40k miles. It's a 10 plate. -

Hello, I have a MK2 vrs and it has the dreaded boot lid rust and also some on the lower passenger door I noticed last week. I have been quoted X amount to sort the rust at a local body shop place but can't really afford it right now. Anyone know a good way to just keep it at bay for now? Or even a easy way to sort it myself. It's not too bad at the moment but it's got worse from when I bought the car. Thanks -
I got a set for 500 posted. Basically brand new off a lad on here last week.

Cruise Control issue mk2 vrs

After taking it in a week later, he wasn't to strip it all down and have another look at it. Which isn't really convenient for me at the moment. -

its a 2010 octavia. Same part as the one that was taken out but CC now doesn't work. Could be a coding issue, he's taking another look tomorrow
