Title: Yeti tips
Post by: dubber36 on 06 April 2011, 16:57

I know it's only a GT, but this has to be one of the cheapest but effective mods you can do.

Yes, I know the badges need to come off, but I'll do that when I get a couple of days to machine polish it. Also, it has been mentioned, and it also says in the fitting instructions that the original pipes have to be cut. This is not the case. They fit perfectly as they are. Just push them on and tap them home with a hammer and a block of wood. Job done.

Errrr, no! That's Yeti as in Skoda Yeti....so order from a Skoda dealer.  :smiley:

I have them and they are indeed very cheap / quick mod that's looks spot on. 10 mins (if that) with a rubber hammer and block of wood.

I believe users fit the Skoda Octavia FDC 610 001 tips Skoda Accessories (http://www.skoda.co.uk/GBR/Documents/Brochures/Accessories/accessories_octavia.pdf) but Skoda are 50mm, Audi are 70mm and VW are 60mm tail pipes. These aren't cheap but the Audi ones are.

These are Skoda Yeti parts for 1.2 TSI and 2.0 TDI CR 81/103kW engined cars. Part No 5LO 071 910 They are 60mm diameter and compared to the ones in you links, I would say they are cheap. £22.00 for the pair from TPS
