Hi can anyone tell me where in the uk i can get the release handle for the rear drivers side seat in the UK cheers

Part numbers should be: 6Q0885643A (47H if Black) for 14, 1J0885313 for 2, and 21 for 6Q0885785 (47H if black). I don't know if you'd be able to get them individually these days, so finding a seat back or a Fabia for breaking would be your best bet.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Big thanks to @Wino for providing me with the links for this in the first place.6Q60.885643Q6Q0885643Q0885643

Exactly how I got the rear cupholder for my Furby. There's a guy breaking a 1.9 (ATD?, not that it matters) that I did business with who is rather good.

The backrest release handles are still available from TPS and they are very cheap. I certainly would rather have a new one than used as they do degrade over the years.

 

I think I paid less than £3 each for them earlier this year.

I thought that TPS were trade only, my local one wouldn’t sell to me a couple of years ago.

I believe there to be a list of TPS branches that sell to general public, but I'm not too sure. A search may bring something back.

Sometimes it just depends on whether they like the look of you or not

My local Skoda dealer is like that... or more specifically the parts guy is like that. Went in to get door clips, got handed a bit of paper with a P/N and a "good luck pal", second time I went in for headrest guides and I was told "we don't give out part numbers"

From my experience, the older set of dealers were very good at handing out info on parts etc. When I was looking at how to get remote locking on mine I recieved great help ( and parts free) from one dealer in Coventry, and great help from another in Rugby. Sadly this sort of place has vanished to be replaced with bigger firms who see us owners as a cash pot. Sadly even TPS has gone this way. Witness a quote to replace the flexible 6inch flexible pipe from fuel pump return on mine of £160  for parts and same for labour, when TPS told me it was "flexible fuel pipe cut to size". Cost at motor spares place =£0.5.
