A bit OT, but aesthetics-related:

Has anyone replaced the GPS/antenna with the newer car's "shark"-style GPS/Antenna? Is it possible? I'd be very interested if anyone has done research to this.
This could be somthing i whant to now to... :)

I love the look but if I remember when I had mine, the amount of spray kicked up was ridiculous from the RS4, you always had to keep it the wiper running to see!!!

You can get the later style aero wiper kit from vag-parts - around £20 or less. Mine actually parks on the right though.

@ Harry - because the std wiper parks to the right on our cars - it just a direct replacement apart from you need a skoda fabia washer cover (but this is included in the vag-parts kit)

@ Phil - not sure, I've never been round the back when the wipers' been on.

You can modify the wiper motor to park on the right, or fit a B6 motor, but for what gain - it looks OEM on the left!

Number plate surround?

Not sure, prefer things looking less cluttered.
