Would it be possible to get one of those green ice scrapers the new Octavias have and install it on the fuel cap of a pre fl mk2? I know the caps may not be identical but perhaps they might be simmilar underneath.

Using an ice scraper is too much like hard work -- far easier to use luke warm water and an old wiper blade..............

Old credit cards (which you do not use any more - obviously) are incredibly good at removing ice.

My concern is not the actual scraping as I already have something - It's just that I would like to have this, like the newer cars do

Looking at image online, the MK3 has an interior slot for the ice scraper to sit in. This is missing on the MK2.

 

You might be able to find a scrapped MK3 fuel flap and glue the holder inside yours or even grab a few magnets to attach an ice scrapper inside

Actually, the best thing for clearing ice is a Costco card; you use one of those and you get 20% off instantly! {boom boom boom tish}

But don't you then get frozen water on the road / driveway, Mike, for other people to slip on or drivers to skid on.

 

Depends where you live / park though, but some people have to consider this. I'm sure you do consider this.

I actually tried warm water a few years ago and it just froze on the windshield.... :(
