  1. Hi, Any Images of what is for sale? How old is the kit?
  2. Can anyone help me, I have a 2017 FL Octavia and a 2016 Audi A3 that id like some adaptions too in the south yorkshire area? Thanks Rob
  3. Thats mine with 20mm front and rear. Albeit pre facetlift, I did wish Id of gone smaller if i remember correctly but this was 3 and a half years ago.
  4. I asked the same question many moons ago when I got my Mk3 VRS and there wasnt any, nor was they any springs for the vRS at that time. Whether its changed since Im not sure as it was 4 years ago. I spoke to Eibach and they supplied me the springs which actually was A3 sportback ones but said the octavia’s will be the same when released. For such a small drop made a huge difference.
  5. Thanks all for the info, I do around 40k a year so shouldnt take too long to settle in. I use Apple Play but nay try other sources see how they are. Thanks again
  6. Ill give that a try, I have the sub turned to +9 but doesnt seem to be any different to 0 if im honest
  7. So....I took delivery of my FL SEL yesterday. I ticked the Canton Sound System, but if im been honest it sounds no better quality than what i would expect in a standard car. It has no bass at all. I adjusted the setting to be set to be more biased for the Front which improved the bass and quality some what but unsure why this isnt the case when its set to the whole car. Does anyone have any tips as to settings etc? Im comparing it to my wifes FL A3 which has the similarly priced Bang & Olufson upgrade which the Canton you simply cannot compare it to. Any help would be appreciated Rob
  8. Evening All, Well I've dropped on a little, 3 years ago saw me sell my beloved and one of the first Mk3 Octavia vRS Estates after only 12 months of ownership due to going in to a company van. After 3 years of various personal cars for the wife and vans for me, I have found myself ordering my first company car (limited choice), to which due to budget restriction from work I went for the following: - FL Octavia SE L - 1.6tdi - Pearl Black - LED Rear Lights (High) - Alios 18" wheels - Canton Sound System I am very glad I went for the LED rear lights, feel it makes he car much more modern, good comparison of the two here with another SE L parked next to mine. Id never seen one in the spec so was keen to see it (hoping it was how I thought), I received my reg from the lease company and it just so happened it was a local reg so thought id have a look at the local dealer and it so happens a car of my exact spec was there. I have post as I have not yet seen the spec (i.e. wheel, lights and colour) so thought id share to help others. Look forward to it being delivered next week. Thanks Rob
  9. I recently sold my 2016 Golf GTD with xenon to make way for my FL octavia next week with LED and the misses has a FL A3 that has LED. I found as with any LED's they are very bright but too direct for my liking. Assurrounding areas are either dark or really lit up theres no fade like you get with halogen and xenon. dont let this put you off as they are very lights and hugely better than halogen and would equal to xenon
  10. I must say I dont recall needing to cut anything off but could be wrong as it was a long time ago.
  11. Hi, I only owned the car for 12 months so been a while now but would expect them to be still workibg fine now. I had an audi S3 with the same lights (which came standard) with no issues.
  12. The carsystems ones is the ones I originally installed 4 years ago now on my mk3 vrs I had at the time. In my opinion no comparison to cheap aftermarket ones that dont shine in the correct direction or give them best light off
  13. Hi, looks good, whats your thoughts on the Aliexpress kit? do you have any close up photos? i wasnt able to opt for the lower chrome trim and now too late to add it, so looking at other options. How do these fix? Is it a replacement or cover? Rob
  14. I think you might be correct, My thoughts is to have them wrapped, going to wait until it arrives and if I think it looks fine then so be it.
