Well thought i'd start one of these things.

I have a 2005 1.4 petrol ibiza reference. Not sure what the exact name of the colour is and havent really see many the same colour. As its my first car have to keep mods subtle.

a couple of pics of the car pretty much what she was like when i got her just with the SEAT 16" alloys fitted. (originally came with steelies and hub caps)

Recently at garage to get ready for MOT and find the fault with the ABS light. So a full service with two new tyres was in order. As for the ABS light turns out the ABS pump had packed in sooo he checked with the Seat dealers and they quoted..... wait for it £700 :-o so he found me a second hand one in good condition for £145 which was quite a bit better.

Moral of the story stay away from the seat dealers.
Apart from dave at SERE hes the exception.

Than you've got the wrong ones.
I used to have them on my previous Ibiza too.
First I've had them mounted like you but then someone in our workshop said they were mounted upsidedown
