| I dont know if thats the right term for them but the plastic things that attach from the boot door to the parcel shelf have now both snapped. Are these replaceable or shall i just manufacture a fix with string and a big not in the end? |

| I found a great parts supplier. Not really sure if their prices are competitive, but if your desperate for some parts im sure they can help. Here's a link to a PDF document listing all their parts for a Skoda Felicia. You can give them a ring, the number is on there. They offer delivery too at pretty good price. Butts of Bawtry |

| The correct part name is pull rod but Butts describe them as parcel shelf strap - which is more descriptive. They list them at 0.30p - excluding VAT and PP. A dealer is the cheapest option if you have one nearby.

| Hi, The parcel shelf straps should be available at your local Skoda dealer for around 30p each. I normally buy six at a time and keep some spare in the boot as the damn things are always breaking. If not Butts of Bawtry have them. Check out their website as they have a downloadable catalogue of every part you will ever need. |

| I use fabia hatch parcel shelf straps on my Favorit,nowt wrong with a bit of mix and match ! I also have the storage net fron a fabia bolted to my parcel shelf and an Octavia boot mat which for some strange reason in nearly the same size.....who needs a ten grand car when a £300 quid version has the same boot space ! Next "improvement" is a set of octavia estate roof rails.......just got to get enogh bottle to drill 6 holes in my shiney roof !!!!! |
