It’s weird mate, I seem to catch my shoes on it all the time, getting in or out, I’m low, so can’t get the jack under to change a wheel if needed, and if I try and drive down any sort of unmade road or not perfect track, I get bangs and twanging noise 😂😂
I’m also wondering if the bolts etc are going to rust/corrode 🤔

I never saw or looked the screen when I bought it, I’m sure it’s the right part (I’m a 2018 150TDi), and there are no depression holes, part number has a made sticker stuck on of 04/12/19, so is a pretty new part. I’m guessing this will save them a few bob ? I don’t know, just feel a bit cheated that’s all, especially as it was £98.18p.
Should have used eBlag........ I know :cry: :roll:
