Hello all,
I have recently placed an order for a Ibiza FR Sport, can’t wait!

I’ve ordered an official SEAT armrest to fit as soon as I collect the car.

What modifications have you all done with your SEAT Ibiza, be it big or small.

Would really like “aluminium” foot rests and pedals but can’t find any or don’t know if the ones that fit a 6j Ibiza will fit the new shape idea.

I made small changes
Door Sill Scuff
Interior lights in led
Stainless steel pedal cover
Exterior mirror indicators repeaters
Reverse light in led
The big change will be swapping the radio 5" for another with 8" android.

By any chance have you got a link for the stainless steel pedal covers and also the door sill scuff?

With the mirror indicator repeaters do they show the amber light inside?

Good idea this thread. Still waiting to collect mine! It's killing me!

What are the indicator lights like? Are they a faff to install? Link please... Ta

Anyone raised the boot floor? It doesn't look great with seats folded down...

Also. What's a great phone holder for it. I need to get one.

Cheers

Phone holders as in magnetic or “traditional” phone holders I assume this will all be from personal choice

Honestly I wouldn't bother with a phone holder, but use Android Auto/Apple Carplay instead (if your car can do it!). Arguably easier to use while driving, no need to sort out Bluetooth either. If you aren't a fan of Android Auto as it is now, it's redesign is being released sometime this summer. (didn't want to embed it as it's not totally relevant, but link to a vid about it here: https://youtu.be/ --kask8JYeg)

Thanks :yes:
Ride comfort is better then with stock FR springs (IMO). For me it's way more comfortable and it absorbs the holes in the road way better even though it's lowered. The car did get a little bit bouncier, but definetly more comfortable!

Mine is the 1.5 litte 150ps.
Biggest difference is the sound of the intake and blow off valve (you get more of the sound). You gain maybe ~5hp acording to tests online, but that is not noticeable. But i noticed that the engine is working little bit better and smoother, maybe because it's getting air more easily with this filter.

I really want a pedal set and metal footrest.
So far I have added dti tuning box, k&n air filter, dtuk pedal box and fitted red led in the footwells front and back.
Next up are some metal kick plates, was considering painting the calipers also but they look so small

I painted my calipers red, and they might be small, but they are a great addition to a doog set of wheels.
As for the pedals and foot rest, you can use ones from older models as they are exactly the same. But you will need to find a way to mount a foot rest, because there are no holes for it, i used velcro and it's been over half a year and it's still in the same place :D Pictures are from winter when i mounted mounted it
