The link I had to the ones I bought ages ago doesn't work anymore.

 

But these ones appear to have a little clear plastic reflector bit on the end for the driver's view. Maybe these would work.

Hmmm, possibly. Would like to be a bit more sure before ordering, have contacted the seller. In 1 picture it seems there's clear plastic at the tip, but in another the light-strip seems to end abrubptly with a black piece of plastic blocking the light. Will wait for the sellers answer. Thanks for the link, no matter the outcome!

I am also looking for a similar one @erikoctavia. Would be nice to share here if you have any luck finding the one with visible light in the indicator. I will do the same!

Me too.  I have the same problem - caught the extreme tip of the repeater strip on the garage door-frame and shattered it - doh!  Mine is the pre-FL model.  SuperSkoda only seem to offer the Audi dynamic jobby that they claim is suitable for all Mk IIIs and I was quite happy to go for that, but the comments on here imply that it may not be MOT compliant.  So I would also be very grateful if anyone can point me towards a satisfactory replacement.

I have these ones from Aliexpress  https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32915235840.html?spm=a2g0s.12269583.0.0.253b70b8rvnpVk  Shop called JOGON Motorsports store.

Fitted them January 2019. Passed two MOTs since then with them and they've performed faultlessly. Cost me £47 back then as well !

 

SuperSkoda ones are fine, had no problems with them.

Asked an AliExpress seller who sells this brand and they advised the JOGON model is not visible from inside (little square in the mirror).

Did some research on this and looked at the @SashaGrace indicator replacement (below), I noticed that there is a brand watermark on the indicator (GRD).

 

 

 

Therefore, I looked for that and I ordered one from here:

Will let you know how it goes when it arrives 🙃

The ones I have are clearly visible from inside.

It appears the have changed the product. The Youtube vid also shows it's visible from inside, but doesn't seem to match with what they're often selling now.

You had no problems with them. But are they visible from inside and from the back? Is the little square visibly blinking as well? Because the ones I got from SuperSkoda are not visible from behind/inside and the little square is just black instead of blinking.

 

Anyway, will wait for Vahid's experience and will wait for the ebay-seller that I contacted response

I will let you know how it goes. Hopefully it is the same brand people used to use and reported it is fine (and also the one in the youtube).

 

@erikoctaviaregarding the ebay link you sent, it does not seem to fit Octavia! The shape is look like the ones for Superb!

Do you mean  https://www.ebay.nl/itm/313735308504 looks like it's for Superb instead of Octavia? Or do you mean another link?

I tried both clear and smoked, both showed up by mirror. I found the Ali ones didn't.

That's so strange! Kopacek must have changed them then... Too bad.

I posted back in April about the SuperSkoda ones.

Maybe their getting them from the same place as Ali.

I did not post the ebay-URL ( https://www.ebay.ie/itm/2x-Dynamic-LED-Side-Repeater-Mirror-Indicator-light-For-Skoda-Octavia-5E-MK3-/313735308504 ) by the way, it was Iway. But are you sure it's not for Octavia?

PS: how did you end up from GRD (nice find in that video by the way!) to finding that aliexpress URL? It's not metioned in the text.

Maybe it is (I just judge by the photo), but the image they use seems different to me.

 

They have the GRD on their boxes for the indicator as far as I noticed that time, and also the type of the plastic and its colour what quite similar. Although you never know until you get it 😬

SuperSkoda one.

Is that the clear version? My Superskoda / Kopacek one is the smoked version and looks like this, there's just a piece of black plastic at the end, blocking all the light. They told me clear version was the same, otherwise I would have tried that one.

This is the clear. Smoked was the same. 

You can see they came in plane brown box.

@Vahids not sure if it's yours or not, but a very poor review appeared on the Ali link you posted. Not good news.

@erikoctaviaThat's actually me. Not happy with the build quality tbh. It looks very cheap! And the customer service is close the worst! The light is not bad though. It is completely visible from the back and fairly visible from inside. I managed to install them today, please see the attached videos!

 

 

And this is how it is looked like from inside
