    Not sure about whether the OCtavias actually do have LHD or RHD versions for tail lights but the polo's did which prevented me getting in a set and a mate who bought a set had to modify them to fit (electrical and globe positioning on left vs right etc). Pretty sure vaglink did state the LED's were LHD cars only.

    Its an online retailer: www.vaglink.com

    Tried the link again just then and for some reason it wouldnt load. Maybe they went bust or updating their website? Don't know.

    Got the eibach springs, whiteline anti-lift kit and Whiteline control arm inner front bushes installed today. Just waiting on the rear adjustable sway bar to arrive. So far so good. No wheelspin so far even in the wet but then again I didnt push it too hard. Will take photos of the lower stance in a few days after the springs settle. The skoda centre caps i ordered were the correct diameter but were too short to clip in so will have to somehow modify the audi ones that came with the wheels and probably get a skoda centre badge of some sort to cover it up.

    Isnt there something with rear fog lights and LHD setup that makes them not legal in our neck of the woods?
    ie they have a white and red light setup, with white on the right for us to show which side of the road you are on (because we drive on the 'correct' side of the road) and reversed for everyone else?

    Exactly!!! That's the reason why there are indeed differences with tail lights. Some times, sellers may not tell you whereas other will list that its LHD only. I couldn't get the LED tails for my last polo gti as they did not come in RHD. A mate bought the LHD version but had to modify them to suit but TBH, I don't want to be doing any of that.
