  1. Hello Bap33, Just basic protection for the original seat fabric, I had been looking at supposedly custom fit seat covers but nothing impressed me. I aquired six sleep blankets free of charge a while ago and it later occurred to me that I could use them as seat covers. Just to make them a bit more 'stand out' I had them embroidered as shown by a local haberdashers (supporting small local businesses) and used 19mm plastic eyelets to accommodate the headrest bars. They are not obviously waterproof but, good enough for what I want. The headrests (purposely in a darker grey for contrast) were created from a purchased sleep blanket and templates of the headrests cut out of the blanket. Three pieces made up the headrest covers - two sides connected by elastic and one piece to wrap around the headrest. Again, custom embroidery carried out by the same local haberdashers. I used left over fabric to make a cover for the centre armrest - so far not embroidered.
  2. Custom made headrest covers (my own fair work) using a cheap sleep blanket and a local haberdashers doing the custom embroidery to compliment the custom logo'd, seat covers.
  3. On my Mk1, I replaced the locking nut with replacement same spec Febi bolts. I have a full size spare (yes I know its bulky and reduces space in the boot area) but its piece of mind for me. I can still have it present even with the back row seats in the UP position.
  4. Mk 1 pre face-lift part numbers. Protective bar - 565807423A9B9 Reflector - 565945103 Reflector - 565945104
  5. One of the big plus points with my old Pug 5008, plenty of 'D' ring points to secure the Peugeot supplied cargo netting. I bought two extra to complete the load security also, using the middle row headrest supports/poles as anchorpoints- jobs a Good un !
  6. A wild guess, the water pump as the cause ?
  7. The middle row blankets have to be slightly rearranged for passenger seat belt use and repositioned (as seen in the photograph) when not in use, I deem them a success in both respects.
  8. My DIY version of seat covers! I had four travel blankets at a loose end so I decided to make an alternative use for them. I had the SKODA name and logo embroidered on them coupled with, 19mm plastic snapfit eyelets to accomadate the headrests.
  9. Like the saying goes 'All good things, come to an end' Onwards !!!!!!!!!!
  10. Thank you for the link to this storage box, I am much obliged Silver 1011. I have tried this at my local Skoda dealer who had one in an Enyaq on the showroom floor, it was a 'close but, no cigar' fit - Hey ho! If you look at the picture above, the storage box has a lower ridge at the seating end which rises slightly higher, to the armrest/centre console end. I did go to parts department to enquire about getting the OEM part number but they didn't have it, might be a case of waiting for the latest incarnation to arrive at a dealership and go forward from there.
  11. Yup, I deserve that 🤣 I will still settle for the storage box part number though.
  12. Hello all, Anyone have the OEM part number for this part please?
  13. Ro0ter, would this be any help to your case ? From my non technical mind, some differences seem apparent between the OEM part numbers. https://vagcode.info/components/7462c94350de4571189a2a06f50bef36.html
  14. It was a while ago since my solution to the problem so if I remember correctly, I just forced the seat cushion under the backrest on the offending Isofix corner and it slotted into place making the metal bar more accessible to fix the plastic part in place. Hope this is of some help.
  15. Exactly the same problem and fix with my Bear.
  16. I don't like the interior full stop and especially the iPad screen. I will be keeping my 2019 Bear as long as I can thank you very much!
  17. I was asked if I wanted to trade my 2019 SE L Bear in, for the facelift model and I refused. I asked the Skoda dealer salesman why, I would pay more for less equipment for example to which the was an " Ok " reply ! I did add, Skoda are not doing themselves any favours are they - not that my opinion will make any difference.
  18. I will try these CFB, much obliged !
  19. I changed the boot lights over to LEDs (Bought off ebay) on my 2019 SEL. The lights went off ok but during a journey, the interior lights came on briefly for no apparent reason. On another journey, the wipers did a sweep of their own accord (the wiper stalk was in the OFF position) so I changed the LEDs back over to OEM and nothing untoward since ! To me, the Bear had an allergic reaction to them !
  20. I have just had the Bear serviced and the dealer has left me a part filled bottle of VW screen wash concentrate G 052 164 M2 👍
  21. There is a honeycomb only version which I think is for the Asian market only ? I suppose it MAY be possible to engineer a solution within the rear reflectors but, I imagine it will be pretty involved ! I wouldn't mind seeing the results if you were to go ahead with it. A couple of example photo's taken off the internet for you for the honeycomb version.
  22. Here you go..................
  23. I'm much obliged m'lud.
