Probably been asked before, but does this fit the Octavia? Saw a thread on seatenthusiasts that says it fits a Leon....

And if it does, where does a lower strut brace go?

And if it does, where does a lower strut brace go?

Somewhere below the upper one

Q - across the bottom of the car between the wishbones.

So I presume this means putting the car on jacks? Are there mounting points already?

Jacks, axle stands, whatever. According the guy on SE it took a garage 10 minutes, so I must be able to do it in an hour ...

Edit - really must find my other axle stand

And how long would it take you to do mine?

An hour and a half Let's see if it fits first ...
