Battery Clamp Gone AWOL

Featured Replies

Just wondering if anyone could help please.

While changing the battery on my mother's Fabia 1.4 MPI (2001), I cleverly managed to lose the clamp/plate in-front of the battery, that holds the battery in position. It fell down and I've tried for ages to locate it, but I can't see it at all. So I'm thinking of getting a replacement - can anyone please tell me the correct name for this part, and maybe even a part number? And are there any places on the web to get such a part? I don't know of a nearby Skoda dealership (I'm in Orpington, Kent). Sorry for my ignorance, and thanks very much for any help.

It's simply called the battery fixing clamp. If the car has an engine under tray, it will be sitting hiding down there. Remove the tray and it will fall out.

Many thanks MoggyTech. I don't remember seeing an under tray, but I can't be sure exactly. If it has an under tray, what is needed to remove it? Thank you again!

Under tray is held on by about 12 size 20 Torx screws.
