260693843221 type in the item number left then got to the guys shop. Search on his eBay shop for seat Leon and it will come up. I can't search his shop as I'm on a mobile version. That number is for a window regulator I was after but as I say go to his online shop on eBay and look at his other items an search for seat Leon and toil see it then amongst other seat bits.
Hope this helps

It must have gone then mate. Give them a call on 07545434978. The yellow cupra might still have it's gearbox still or both of us didn't see it. Just tried them myself but going to answer machine!
Keep trying them mate

Don't try and fit a diesel box. My LCR box went about 18 mths ago and I rushed and bought a diesel box.

It will physically fit on the car, but the ratios are all wrong. Total lack of acceleration, car felt as slow as :censored:

On the plus side the economy was a bit better :lol:

I managed to find a ERR on ebay at a good price and fitted it on yesterday.....
so far so good, car drives much smoother and can tell that I was loosing alot of speed with gearbox grinding before....

Havent had a chance to give it a poke yet but will take it for a long drive today and update on how it goes...

And to be honest I cant tell any gear ratio differences yet.... all seems to be smooth & silky....
