Had the octavia for a couple of weeks now so thoughtthat i would splash out on one or two bits for it so went to superskoda.com and ordered the gas bonet strut and LED interior lights last wednesday. They arived today and i fitted them both this evening, very impressed i must say! If anyone wants to buy stuff from them but worries that they are overseas then there is nothing to worry about. Thinking of logging back on and buying some more bits and bobs now!

nice, this thread needs photos

Link to Gas Bonet lifter please.

Did you contact them direct or order on the web, the latter usually means outrageous delivery charges, but I've heard if you contact them first they will do a deal??!

I've used them in the past and I had no issues. Delivery was reasonably priced and quick to New Zealand.

I've heard about very poor service when faulty items were sent to Brisky members.

Is a single bonnet lifter strong enough for the bonnet, or would you be better with one on each side?

I havn't been able to order anything from superskoda as when I reach the 'checkout / process order' stage, it cancels everything !! my shopping cart is empty and it asks me to register...again!!! I guess I'm doing somthing wrong in the order process but I dont know what, I've emailed them several times but had no reply either.

It appears that youve been lucky in your transactions with SuperSkoda.

They can charge outrageous shipping costs and their communication is non existent

May I ask what you were charged for postage?

Just google SuperSkoda and see what appears, I would agree with above, you are lucky and in the minority!

cost me 12 euros for postage which from the continent, i thought was ok - i need to order something else from them now so lets see what happens second time around Maybe second time lucky??

Or maybe not........

The interior lights that you bought... Is one set enough for front AND rear or do you need two sets?

You need two sets.

yes i thought it was one set for all but now i have lovely white leds in the front and horrible yellow lights in the rear! The difference is amazing, will take a pic tonight and post it here
