Hi everyone and thank you for any help in advance. I have a 65 Octavia vrs estate and decided to change the badges to black ones . I purchased some after market ones off of eBay from a seller who claims to have sold hundreds with no issues . However the Skoda emblems both front and back I cannot get to fit correctly they lift up in the middle and won’t stay down. I believe they should be 90mm curved both back and front and this is what I have ordered . The seller sent me a second set claiming they never had the issue before but I’ve tried and had the exact same results . I took every caution I could think of , making sure the paint was fully cleaned and all the sticky tape / glue was removed and used a hot air gun and used a hot air gun to warm up the surfaces . I’ve tried to contact Skoda about purchasing some black badge emblems but they say they can only provide what the vehicle left factory with unless I provide the part numbers. Does any one know the correct Skoda part numbers for the black badges . Or somewhere I could buy after market ones that will work ? Again thank you in advance any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you varoom and gaz.

Hi my names Matt and have just subscribed after just buying my first skoda which I collect on Thursday (can't wait). Its a 65 plate octavia vrs tdi estate. I came across the forum looking how to upgrade the infotainment screen (I've created a separate post for some help) . Thank you to anyone in advance for any future advice or help. I hope I can also help some of you if I can (im a technician) 😀

Hi I'm new here and this is the first time I'm actually posting on any forum. I have just purchased a 2015 65 plate octavia vrs which I believe has the mib2 Amundsen screen with smartlink/carplay. This was the only thing I wasn't 100% happy with about the car , other than that was 100% the spec I wanted so i want to upgrade it to the larger screen. I've been reading through previous posts and come across 2 different part numbers. 5e0919605m and 5e0919605n. Not sure what the differences are if any other as they look identical . Would really appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.
