Does any body know if its posible to retro fit the plastic cover on a cr vrs my2012 as I think the cheap fabric cover looks out of place. I know it isnt some think people see but I know its there.

I don't know for sure since there may have been changes that would preclude a retro fit. However, the old style you want is a tray, a two upright pieces consisting of a back side piece and a front piece that clip together and a top piece that hinges on the top edge of the back upright piece. Since this configuration is common across the entire VAG range for years, I would suggest a trip to a scrapper.

Ah. Thought this was a thread about a quite specific type of insurance!

A what?

Later ones had a fabric cover?

Yea mine has. Haha.

A what?

I'm guessing it's a battery cover.

Sarge

I'd put the earlier hard plastic cover on

There's a fabric battery cover?!?

Surely not. I assumed this was something to do with the umbrella holderthingymajig.

I was wondering if it was insurance cover by our nocturnal friends..

Can I get a mod rename it battery please.

Isn't that the same joke I made earlier???

Probably.

If you go back to your first post and click 'edit' then click on 'Use full editor' you will be able to change it yourself I got exactly what you meant when you posted but have no answer unfortunately, I too have one of those cheapo felt type covers on mine lol.

mine has the plastic cover.....and its a late 2012 car.

Thankyou to the mod. I dont get why some models have the plastic cover and others felt. Surely is doesnt save that much money.

I agree the felt cover looks naff. You could just ditch it and 'go naked'.

most likely the same reason some have a 60ah battery and some have 70ah.........makes no sense at all.
