Estate Foam

Ok thanks. Do you have a link. I have an estate as well but no spare tyre. Was looking to get a space saver.
Unfortunately not they're on ebay with a spare tyre and all the tools, but in my case I just needed the foam and no tools as I have them so I ordered it directly through a Seat dealer.
Here's an eBay listing with the foam, tools and tyre.
The full official parts, foam, scissor jack, wheel brace, etc was about £220.
The estate takes a full sized spare and you can get a tool kit that fits I the middle of it. Way to go.
I believe the part number for just the foam is 5F9 012 109 B. This is according to the diagram here: https://seat.7zap.com/en/e/leon+leon+4/le/2015-754/0/011-11040/#1
When I got my Leon ST it only came with puncture repair kit. So I bought a genuine Seat spare wheel and built up a tool kit for about 1/3 the price of the official kit. I didn't purchase the foam in the end, it left more room for spares under the boot floor.

I had that foam with the space saver. I bought a full sized spare and downsized to 17". I bought the Skoda Octavia 3 RS insert kit for 19" 5E0093860C= £51 inc VAT as they do not do one for 17" .. only 15" and 16". This comes complete with jack etc. I could have cut this one down to fit 17" or 18" rims.. but to be honest I just stole the shortened central nut that holds the wheel in and then put the tools in a roll of cloth which meant I could fit my proper tool kit and a few more bits in there with the floor in the low position. So I have a space saver with foam insert and 19" full sized kit that I could do with moving on in Aberdeenshire..
It's a no brainer. You've got the space to carry a full sized wheel so why wouldn't you? I've bought spare alloys for all my cars and they have been put into use. Stick the spare on, continue as if nothing had happened. Ideal.
I think that, by law, all four-seat cars above a certain size should have the space to carry a full-sized spare. They should come with at least a space saver and inflation kits should be banned from being supplied instead of a spare.
Thanks just been told it's a B so again they've got the wrong part sent to me. 2nd one now. Will try to return and find another place.
Thanks it's just the foam I'm after. They've got the correct part now so just gotta send this back. Sooo frustrating though
Has the exchange rate improved on moon to earth pounds yet do you know? Or am I better off going to Mars Dollars?
