We have just bought a polo dune, and i notice they have a nice plastic ecu cover, do you reckon this will fit the fabia?

Interesting must admit I don't like how exposed it is, it's the same on mine.

You can see it in this image ive found:

 

 

Seems not all models have the covers, but from what ive seen its the later 9n3 engines have them.

Good choice on a Polo Dune, one of my top five wheels on them!

 

As for the cover, ive never noticed before, im gonna say yeah it will fit though

Looks much better that's for sure. Bet they're not easy to find, mind you I keep being surprised these days, seems you can usually find what you're looking for. I've often found breakeryard.com a useful website.

The 1.4 petrol we got is really slow :P

But ye alloys will suite my fabia :P

 

It will be the misses car, practical 5 door lots of head room for carting the little lad about.

I will try and source a cover and find out the costs via tps/ vw and update here, im sure it would interest people.

For sure. I'd like to get one.

Just found a picture, of my actual car off the sellers images, this shows a clearer ECU and cover. I also notice nice dust caps on top mounts ... lol all the things i might pinch for my car haha.

is it plastic?

I think the one in my 9n Polo is metal? Will check tomorrow.

If it's metal then I would imagine it's also held on with shear off bolts. It's not a decorative cover, it's a security plate for thatcham approval.

hmm ive checked a bit more off a polo forum:P

 

this is whats come back:

 

 

Not sure if it could be made to fit?

Ah, that's what it's for!

All my Fabias have had the "nice dust caps" on the top mounts

Yeah that's a security cover. Arse ache getting that off when you need to unplug the ECU.
