With the pics of both IC's to compare, I think there may be a few differences.

Is it just my eyes or is the octavia IC longer?
And the hoses for the Leon look longer to compensate.

I dont know, it kinda looks that way but it could be the angle maybe. if it is shorter it might not be to much of a problem. As long as i can knock some brackets up. If not i think im stuffed

Apollogies Mike I thought it would fit like most Mk5 platform stuff.
I can offer a refund if you dont fancy the hasstle of making it fit.
