Eibachs fitted

[turboman6680]

Got my Eibachs fitted today at my local dealer - £211 all in. Was going to then head down road for black vinyl roof but ran short of time. Another time. Soon.

Car looking great and no discernible difference to ride comfort.

Asked for Central locking plips to be enabled but seemingly they can't do them or the needle swipe or mph in maxi dot. I'll be looking for someone with VCDS then! Anybody known to have it around Perth / Aberdeen?

Cheers

Hi Turboman,

Where you based?
Who fitted your Eibachs?

Is there much difference to handling v comfort?

Did it lower car? any photos?

Any pics dude, I'm getting mine done on the 26th.

You got a link for that aerial? How's the reception?

[turboman6680]

Reception is only marginally worse - not enough for me to swap it back.

Can't find the link just now but was easy to find on eBay and around £7 posted.

Official OEM part no: 6R0 035 849. It's 200mm long and is £14.99 last bought. No loss of reception [emoji106]

Have it on the Rapid and my Citigo.

I am so doing that to mine - if I get the car back from the wife when I come home in the summer...

How much drop do those springs give you? Also am I right in thinking that you can get eibachs springs fitted from skoda?

25-30mm quoted drop, Skoda dealers do indeed fit them, so does not void your warranty.

Within about a month of ownership I had fitted eibachs, wrapped grill gloss black and debadged. 3 things that make the sport look perfect IMO.

Looks like I'll be making a phone call tomorrow thank you

Well worth it. Transforms the car, sit way to high otherwise which ruins the look.

Is this the one?
