does anybody know if this will fit my 99 feli pickup ? Its advertised as a caddy 5 speed kit and i wondered if they were one and the same ???????????????

No that won't fit. Looks like it's for the original type 14 Caddy based on the mk1 Golf. The only Felicia-based Caddy is the 1996-2001 9U pickup - the 1996-2003 9K van sold alongside is a Polo-based SEAT Inca and shares no components besides the 1.6 and 1.9 engines.

This is the one you need.

seconded, that's for a 9K/9L chassis type

the 9K ibiza is based on a mk3 golf running gear and has virtually nothing in common with a polo or felicia

Hmm, and I even remembered to check my 'facts' before posting this time Is it not then the case that 9K Inca/Caddy stems from the 6K Ibiza, which was designed in parallel with the 6N Polo, both based on the A03 platform which itself is derived from a shortened Mk3 Golf? That's what t'internet said, but then half my job consists of having to assume things other people have written are true, and that can't compare with the master scrapyard bodger's experience

the seat ibiza 6K is a totally different setup, the engine mounts onto the subframe like it does in a mk2/3 golf, then has a front crossmember with an additional engine mount underneath, all the track control arms and suspension/hubs etc come from the mk3 golf, this is also the same on the corboda and polo estate.. the 6n polo has the engine mountings welded to the chassis rails and has a totally different suspension setup to the 6K.. they share virtaully no components in common, except the lower balljoint iirc

yes the 9K inca/caddy is based on a 6K ibiza...

all this is incidental anyway... the skoda pickups (and all felicia's) were based on a favorit chassis and has nothing in common with any vw of any type, although it does 'look' similar to a mk1 golf setup
