      nope, they weren't for sale.

      I could have got a full Scirroco interior very cheap but freight doubled the price.

      The car is worth SFA and I doubt I'll be selling it any time soon so I can afford to make it look like an abortion.

        • Can anyone please help me with some info. I'm looking at putting coilovers in my VRS MKIII Wagon. Has anyone done this? Also is it difficult to pull out and put back in some of the interior/boot to get to the rear strut tops?

          Probably should've put this post in a different thread, apologies. But i don't know how to delete it, damn tapatalk lol.

                        Same parts as a Golf MK7.

                        It's like a MK2 Octy, there isn't a need to remove interior panels. You remove the top mount bracket (2 bolts) from inside the wheel arch.

                        Have a look in youtube for Golf MKV/VI how-to's. Don't bother looking at the MK7 spring change by DuetcheAuto as they make it unnecessarily complicated.

                              • For modification parts, jump on briskoda and see what/where Poms get their parts, you'd be amazed at how much is available for the Skoda, and at a reasonable price.
