  1. Hi! Does anybody know how to remove driver’s side recessed handle (the handle above driver’s head)? I found out this workshop manual on the internet, it’s quite useful but not 100% clear: http://workshop-manuals.com/skoda/yeti/body/body_work/interior_equipment/recessed_handle/ But I don’t understand exactly how to unclip the clamps??? Should I try to spread apart the clamps, as much as possible, and pull hard on the handle? Or should I place a screwdriver between outer and inner clamps and peel them off somehow? I tried to do both, but I accomplished nothing. The clamps hardly budge at all. It’s really difficult to spread them apart. And I don’t want to damage something. If someone has a clear idea how to do this please help... thnx
  2. I apologize if I gave wrong advice , although I would be somewhat surprised if Roomster (plain version, not Scout) doesn't have a recess or canal to clamp down roof racks. Octavia has them... I don't know about Fabia, but again that would be a big drawback if it doesn't. :thumbdwn:
  3. Take a look at this thread, might help you. http://briskoda.net/octavia-i/vrs-what-look-out/153532/
  4. For example by using standard Thule Rack Systems: Thule Car Racks - All Thule Roof Rack Base Systems Individual Components And then adding one of the Box Carriers: Thule What I meant by the previous post is that there's no need for OEM Skoda roof rails in order to mount a box on a car.
  5. OK Bad memory on my part... it's been some years since I've ordered them.
  6. I haven't personally but I've heard from a person who actually visited superskoda.com that this is in fact a small shop with flimsy shed in the backyard. Very little items are on stock, almost everything has to be ordered. This is what I heard, at least.
  7. That's right. You don't need to have roof rails to mount Thule, Mont Blanc, etc. roof boxes or other roof accessories. Besides, this is cheaper and far simpler way to go since fitting roof rails is quite tricky.
  8. LMs are a bit similar to standard Skoda Elegance alloys: Have them since I bought the car and all I can say is that they are pain in one's backside to wash properly.
  9. As a happy owner of Mk1 I have to say that Mk2 is better Especially nice is ECU and all the nice things you can do with VAG COM and OBD2 port.
  10. Right, but what about Octavia Scout Estate? I believe that Roomster Scout is about an inch higher that Octavia Scout, disregarding the seat, but it's really after iccyboo to see if this is enough for him.
  11. Don't forget that older cars with extra HPs also tend to me more worn out. So next owner always has to do extra chores and fix parts that ordinarily wouldn't need fixing.
  12. 1.8T 150HP and 180HP don't have the same acceleration and top speed: 217km/h, 8,4 sec and 240km/h, 7,9 sec. And there's no such thing as 180HP 4x4, only RS.
  13. First I'd recommend adjusting height of the driver's seat. In a Roomy Scout you can be positioned either rather lowish or highish. What I mean is that there's a non negligible difference between the lowest and the highest seat position. I would expect there is a small difference in driver's seat height between O2 Scout and Roomy Scout in Roomy's favor, but it is overshadowed by the set seat position.
