I have the Kopacek grill covers for both my petrol fabia and octavia.You do get a faster warm up but my answer to iced windows is a 2kw fan heater for 15/20 minutes switched on with a smart plug via Alexa. At one time, on an old passat estate, I fitted a caravan plug to the outside of the car so I didn't have a lead going through the door seal. I fitted the sound deadening to my octavia and it does quieten it a little.

The Mk2 0ne may fit, the main part of the part no is the same. The prefix is different as is the suffix, but the main part 867 871 is the same.

Slightly off topic. but does anyone know the part number for the the bit of plastic on the LHS as per the non false floor fitment?.

I suspect the OP hasn't got the false floor.

That's the one. Fitted with Cross Climates, split boot, boot cover strings and various other bits that you can see on the photos. It went in with a set of carpet mats as well, along with a Heko grill cover. It does have the clutch click but I didn't notice it after a while.

It's a bodge but....

I traded my 2014 Citigo SE Greentech, with 21k on the the clock, FSH, with various extras that I added. I don't think it's going out in the trade so if anyone is looking for a good 'un it might be worth a call to them.

Picking this one up on Wednesday all being well. 2015 1.2tsi se 110bhp with 35k on the clock. Virtually all bells and whistles fitted. Replacement for my Citigo which has served perfectly for 5 years.

This the estate with 16" wheels and 205/55-16 tyres, VW trims with Skoda badges applied.

18" wheels and tyres are less comfortable as the sidewalls on the tyres are smaller, therefore less compliant. I went the other way, took 17" off and fitted 16", much more comfortable and less prone to damaging wheels in potholes. This all assuming you fit the correct tyres to keep your speedo correct.

I have a 16 plate 1.4 Tsi with the manual 6 speed box and can quite understand why people go for the DSG, It gets hard work changing gear at times and really the only reason I am persevering is that otherwise it's a cracking motor with under 30k on the clock.

You can always drill the head of the screw to the extent that you can get the disk off. Normally a pair of self grips will turn the screw as the heat destroys the bond. Fit new screw with new disk.
