Yeah no problem. I'll take some tomorrow for you

[FUBAR]

Fubar. That sounds like a plan. Are they easy for a novice to fit?

Easy enough see link below some talk in that thread of fitting also further back in here, fronts straight on perfect, rears fit but slightly more annoying to fit. Some good tips from folk on how to make them easier to put on. I did mine without removing wheels and have massive hands, lesser men failed :P

Well by chance I got a snap or 2 but not a part No. Saw packaging for rear ones as KEA 600 001 A and in the square ones are KEA 600 001 so minus the 'A' at end. Then if I change the front part No. for square ones being KEA 600 002 to KEA 600 002 A, adding the 'A' at end and google it I found them listed on a German Octavia forum as the front FL shape ones stating the same with old part No add and 'A' and its the FL ones.

So I am saying Part/Accessory No's are (might be wrong don't think so though):

Front Pre FL (square) KEA 600 002
Rear Pre FL (square) KEA 600 001

Front FL (rounded) KEA 600 002 A
Rear FL (rounded) KEA 600 001 A

If UK dealers are able to see/order these is another matter but they can be from here and I believe they are approx €12 for front set. I was there when the rounded ones went on and they were just as easy as the square ones to fit. Rear just as awkward!

sorry I forgot all been busy busy busy as close to a perfect fit as I got by just sticking them straight on but 1000 miles in a few days since I did it and they are still there inc 1 car wash

Cheers Fubar- no point in me taking any now as even the colours the same!

 

Raidevita,

 

Mine look just like the race blue one in Fubars pics. It's personal preference as to which you prefer though. Niether are brilliant in keeping the crud off - I got the square ones at about £45 for the set because my dealer didn't have the part number for the round fronts, just the rears so I chose square front and rear so they matched. IIRC the round ones are cheaper at circa £12 for the rears as they are OE but I wasn't quoted a price for the fronts as they couldn't find them 'on the system'

Yea the square ones were listed as accessories and twice the price of the rounded ones which were listed as parts. Skoda in the UK do not appear to be allowed to order the rounded fronts. The impression on the forum was that these did not exist until earlier in the thread when I dispelled said myth once and for all, took some convincing though lol. Rounded are same part number as square but with an 'A' at end for each set. 

[raidevita]

Thanks guys. I'll ponder for a while.

Fubar. When you're in the UK, msg me and I may take them off you then.

Ordered full set from oemvag.es. IT came to £52.00 incl shipping, bit more than I wanted to spend but the round ones are what I prefer, the squares are just not doing it for me.

Thanks everyone for the heads up on the parts etc.

Wow I think I best stick to the square ones personally, I don't want it 'doing' anything for anyone at the mere sight of the flaps!

Hi

Can someone send me a link for the rear rounded mud flaps please?

Buy them from the main dealer.

[raidevita]

I've tried them and they can't find the rear rounded ones on the system. I swear they showed me the rears a month ago. Where did you get them from?

White Dove Cardiff.

 

Rear FL (rounded) KEA 600 001 A

[raidevita]

OK cheers. That's strange. I rang Peterborough and Cambridge Skoda and none of them found the rear rounded on the system. Why would they have them in Cardiff and not anywhere else?

Dealers struggle to find them on the system because the square profile flaps are the recommended 'accessories'.

 

The rounded profile flaps are available as 'spare parts' only so they need to search for them using the above part numbers.

[raidevita]

Thanks silver. I'll ring them tomoro and try again.

Give them these part numbers:-

 

1Z0821822A9B9 & 1Z0821821A9B9

[raidevita]

Welsh..which number is for the rear rounded mud flaps?

[Welsh_kai_boy]

Use both as it is left and right

[raidevita]

Left and right! I've seen it all now. Cheers.

Attempted to fit my rear rounded mud flaps without taking the wheels off. Unsuccessful due to the holes not lining up properly. I've read on here that a few have managed to do it without adding new holes. How on earth did you do it? I'm.confused why the fronts go on so easily and the rears don't.

[Welsh_kai_boy]

As I said in my PM, take the wheels off, warm them in hot water and voilà hey presto they fit.

VRS front is same as a standard octavia but rear bumper is different and makes it a slightly off fit for the flaps but they do go on. Some people soften them up in hot water to make them more pliable and pukl them into position so holes line up and put screw back in.

Just had to alter 1 fixing when I fitted mud flaps to mine, should be shown in the links above.

[raidevita]

Okay cheers. I'll try the warm water solution.

Fubar..well done to you for getting them on without taking the wheels off. Think you have different fixings though. I would have easily done it if they were close.

[littleade]

I managed to do the fronts without taking the wheels off by going on full lock. I did try fitting the rears without taking the wheels off but gave up in the end.It was at this point I found I had no jack or wheel brace with mine which prompted me to get the spare wheel kit though I had a jack and socket set to do the business. I also used some black silicone behind the flaps on the inner wheel arch on the rears to make sure I got a good seal and put some copper grease between the alloys and the hub so they don't sieze.

I have fitted both sets (square and rounded) on different VRS's
