Ahh i want colour coded handles!!

[vRS19TD]

Brilliant. I was going to say you've only got 3 handles lol

Will need to finish my catch can too

That's why i thought i'd better explain in case someone says there's only 3.

There's someone on here breaking a silver Octavia that will likely have 3 handles.

Hi mate I've just picked my self up a Mk4 golf arm rest and I'm struggling to come up with a way of fitting it, have you got a plan on how you'll be attaching yours?

[Dark_Hero]

Have a look at timfok's progress in the fabia 1 section. He's fitted a couple of different arm rests

[vRS19TD]

Yeah, there used to be a guide by Mattievrs on here but not sure it still exists. I'll have a hunt around.

Here it is: http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/189942-pimped-my-golf-mk4-armrest/

Found it!

I think I'm going to ask a chap I know at a garage if he can tack a few bits of threaded rod to the floor and then I could pop the mount on and then wind some nuts down so its solid as.

But I‘ll have to see what he says as I'm not too fond of the idea of self tapping screws going in to my interior trim, but atleast I know what to do if welding is a no go.

Picked up a Fabia vRS exhaust from aidy.t earlier in the month but had paint overspray on, so read up on how to get the paint off and turned out to be quite easy using oven cleaner.

whats next for the exhaust? or is it just a replacement part?

Replacement part as my current one is slightly dented.

What will that do?? (Complete novice at modding)

[mattievrs]

you have the two "holders" for the middle rear headrest? Theyre different to the others ;-)

Nope, trying to source bits for it. How much different are they??

Fair enough.

I think i'll leave it for now but i have got the extra pipe if i change my mind.

The correct ones will hold the headrest tight, the wrong ones won't. 1 set is square and the other cylindrical but can't remember which way round. The middle ones are only about £10 for the set from skoda iirc

i actually can't :( mainly because im now not going to be anywhere near work until the 4th best thing is to give us a call Monday on 020 8300 2450 and ask for Matt he is in parts, he will more than happy help you and get them ordered up if you order them Monday they will be there for Wednesday

[vRS19TD]

Cheers, i'll give them a call.

Elephant mod done:

Still managed to break something doing the above simple mod though: :(

Swapped seatbelt pad:

[JoshH]

Doh!

Think you'll need to replace that dude!!

[vRS19TD]

I know but hoping it will be okay for a while until i source another one. I'm hoping the black plastic just unscrews off and the part can come from any other Mk1 Fabia. :(
