Cupra handbrake Covers and chrome grille bits

[danmay]

went into my local seat dealer today after a cupra handbrake cover (or at least a picture of 1) and basically got a few confused looks and it seems no-one knows what i'm on about!

has anyone got a picture of theirs and/or a part number and price, i looked on the last thread about this and couldn't find anything (maybe i'm being blind )

also asked about the centre grille chrome cover like i've seen on a few ibizas round my way, but they'd only sell me the 3 pack, i only want the middle one and got no help

GRRRR!!!!!!! lol

sure you people will be able to help me

You can only buy the grille in a pack of 3. The Cupra handbrake, have a look on the parts number thread in the FAQ section. I know T.Spark has one fitted.

The FR and Cupra and also possilby the Sport all come with just the chrome centre grill surround so surely the part's available as a spare??

 

[danmay]

thats what i thought but apparently not!

 

[T. Spark]

Dont know the part number im afriad, but it basically feels a little softer and has red stiching!

 

[Leigh15]

thats what i thought but apparently not!

I'd go to a different stealer mate - there's no way that SEAT buy a pack of three grilles and then sling two of them away when they have a FR/Cupra in need of a new surround. The single separate grill MUST be available - they're just too lazy to find the part number for you!

update!!

went to a different dealer and ordered my handbrake cover, it's £13.76 altogether which is a pretty simple and cheap mod to have, just caught them at closing time so gonna ask again saturday about the grille when i go and pick the handbrake up!

will post part numbers 2!

 

[Leigh15]

cool

I have an idea, danmay, paint the area you want

 

[deadeyejim]

Dan when you get the new cover can you get some nice clear pics of it. I'll be interested to see it.

 

[Aimez]

yeh same here ^^^^

 

[danmay]

no probs peeps, am quite excited (well, as excited as a 19 yr old lad can get about a handbrake cover lol) will get some good before and after pictures for you, it best be good now else i'll be gutted lol

 

[Aimez]

yeh you can tell us if its a pain in the arse to fit like the gear knob was! Anythings better than the crpapy plastic original one.

 

[danmay]

ok!!

went yesterday and got me handbrake cover, part number 6LL711461SHG @ £13.42 inc VAT, looks very nice!

Wasn't too much of a pain to fit, just squeeze the back of it where there's a little clip, squeeze the front and pull it off (might need a bit of strength!). the new one just slides on it's dead easy!

i think it looks good, need to get the cupra gear gaiter to match now though

Did you put that on at the meet before you left?

 

[danmay]

yeah, naz helped me put it on while you were distracted lol

 

[Mr Cellotape]

I'm always distracted

Most people call it brain damage!

 

[danmay]

i think you and the other half were admiring the shine off my car........... lol, no seriously, i think you were looking at the slight blemish on your rear passengers side wheel!

 

[Mr Cellotape]

The chrome centre grilles are available separately, they're about £10+VAT. I bought one for my old Sport, its the complete grille so you have to unbolt your front bumper a bit to get it out. The part number is 6L0 853 651 E 739
