[Yeti South West]

Hello Everyone, I heard soon after buying my Yeti in July 2011 that Skoda was to bring out its next version with a chrome badge in place of the green. Can anyone shed any light on this? I'd like to buy one. Thank you.

Hi, the Citigo's have the new Skoda badges on them. You can get them from SuperSkoda. It does state not for Yeti though...

They also have the new style name badge...

Thanks, Steve. I guess I'll just have to wait for a Yeti-friendly version to come out.

 

[Yeti South West]

Thanks, Derek. It's badges for the fronmt grille and boot I'm after.


All the best.

Here here, the one thing I don't like about Skoda is the green badge. Come on Skoda, fingers out get chrome badges for us!
I have trawled the interweb (as Clarkson calls it) for Skoda badges of other colours from the far east etc. absolutely no luck!
If anyone finds any, count me in. The trouble is the Yeti boot lid badge is ginormous.
Just looked at the price for the Citigo badges. They're having a laugh aren't they £20 .... I don't think so!
Does anyone know where I can get a + sign in chrome to match the Yeti type face also an 'S' & an 'E'

Thanks Skodanut,


I guess if enough of us who would like silver badges for grille and boot say so on here, Skoda or Super Skoda, may manufacture them? We'll just have to wait and see..

Skoda announced some months ago that ALL models will be having a new badge, without the green and like the ones on the Citygo and Rapid, so they will be available. I'm hoping that as my rear one has got the white worm again, that they will replace it with a new type when it goes in next.

 

[Yeti South West]

Hey! My boot badge has whiteworm too. It's frustrating as it must have been there from the outset and I've only had it 15 months. So, I could get a replacement badge do you think? Thank you.

 

[Skodanut]

????Whiteworm???

????Whiteworm???

whiteworm

had the rear badge replaced

 

[Llanigraham]

Like that above^^^^^

Talk to your dealers, and they should replace them under warranty.

I have just had my badges changed bcos of white worm and I asked about he new badges and they said that they cant put the new ones on bcos they are smaller

 

[Yeti South West]

That's not true. I bought a new grille badge and a red and chrome 'yeti foot' boot badge about 12 months ago. Skoda after sales service is pretty poor in my opinion. As people have already said, the green Skoda badge is dated and unattractive.

By the look of Lobo's photos he has replaced the green badges, so it can be done.

Isn't that a F/L model anyway? And would come with the new
style badges??



I suppose it's possible that the dealer could argue that under the warranty
they will replace like-for-like...

You're right I shouldn't have used the word "replaced"
as they would have been on there anyway. Just meant to point out options other than green were available. I'll go back to my corner now.

[discosteve]

I knew I remember seeing a post about replacing the badges... I am very tempted to do the same myself. Mine have the dreaded whiteworm and I'll ask for a new set when it goes info it's next service.

The new badges i put on the car this morning. The Tank is uppdated

My badges were not replaced with the new type, they were on the car when I picked it up 5th of Jan.
