What did you do to your Octavia today?

[vEnOm_oz]

I'm in Victoria.

Dealer was ~$33 each. We will be able to get them from o/s for 20 bucks (roughly) delivered (assuming people buy 2 each) Dealers will have to order them in, so wait will be similar.

What state are you in?

If there is just 3 of us it works out the same as getting it individually (around $50 per pair, delivered to our door)

[vEnOm_oz]

Yes, hence the thought of sourcing from the dealer. I don't think there will be many more takers, but I should add that I've been surprised before.

From dealer is ~$67 and similar wait time. I'm a tight ass, and want to save $17

I but the bullet, based on recommendations here and bought a set of lakin plate mounts. Paul is a great bloke to talk to, and really knows his ****.

Thanks for the reminder GTR , I'm going to ring ACT gov now and double check plate sizes and put my order in too. Are you going to install the plates yourself or the dealer?

[GTR27]

I'm installing them myself. The dealer has very strict instructions to not install anything with screw's, and I will supply plates and mounting brackets.

Burned by Brisbane prestige last time, where the used self tappers front and rear for std plates (euro didn't arrive in time), then another set for the Euros. So I had two sets of holes in the tailgate (through steel) and front bumper

Would the lights be the same for Golf MK7 and the MK3 Octavia, from Bold Sport? They don't seem to have Skoda specific lights.

For LED's I got them from LEDPerf Pack Full LED interior for Skoda Octavia 3 (5E)

But I think Bold Sport are far cheaper for aussies (and far quicker!) - And bold sport also do the loom for footwell lights

You wont be disappointed - i have the Lakin bracket's on both my Golfs and they are beautifully made and much nicer than the factory plastic bracket.
