Just had a response, apparently for the estate you need an adapter for the wiring loom. It has been posted to me!

 

Word of warning to anyone ordering for an estate make sure you ask for the loom adapter.

Are they sending the adapter? For free?

Well, I got the mail too. The adapter is free of charge. Great support from their side!

Adapter is free  :clap:

I emailed as have lights for my superb estate still to be build and they are sending me adapters FOC. Great service if only skoda uk took some lessons from superskoda

Did the same, e-mailed them late last night & had a response first thing this morning ssaying they were posting the adapter out to me.

Package arrived yesterday with the connectors in it. Fitted them this morning. I am happy now

How did you manage to insert the led lights? The case is too big for the hole on the boot door. See below

Try the other way round

I assume they are the same lights they list for the Yeti and ~Octavia, if so they are about 1mm longer than the OE ones so the hole needed trimming slightly.

Yep, the bespoke unit they make for the Fabia was also 1 or 2mm too big so the hole in the boot wall needed shaving down with a file.

Thanks. I will try tomorrow.

I didn't need to modify anything to fit the SuperSkoda lights.

I discovered when fitting my LED lights that they fit perfectly without filing if you put the upgraded ones in the other way round from the way the standard ones were fitted. Slot in the 'lip' first & give the other side a gentle thump. They are very impressive bulbs when illuminated. Hope this helps

Has anyone tried the SuperSkoda lights for the doors?

I assume the front and back are the same size? So if I replace all door lights I'd need two sets?

I have these in the front doors of my Mk2 Superb and they are great. Not sure if the Mk3 SuperSkoda LEDs are the same but they are a massive improvement over the normal W5Ws. LED W5Ws aren't that great as they don't fire all of the light down onto the kerb. 

 

Front and back are identical but that's a Mk2. I would be surprised if they are different on the Mk3, but don't take my word for it!

I did consider the red and white version of them... but @ €80 for 4 decided against it, these turned up today however:

@ just £4.14 for all 4 LED’s I am more than happy with them:

 

 

I do not have a very good night time shot of them as the street light outside is far too bright, but suffice to say they are MUCH brighter than the std bulbs, as their photo (not my car) suggests:

Where they a direct replacement Gizmo68?

Yes, pop the lens off, pull the W5W bulb out and these push straight in, it's a 5 min job.

shame.......no longer available !
