Focus MK3 parcel shelf

Hi everyone,

I have finally fixed the rubbish parcel shelf on my wife's MK3 and made a small video.

I got the new fixings from a guy on eBay who sells reinforced 3D printed bracket with screws which are much better and sturdier than the factory ones.

Also, anyone here changed their mk2 to a MK3 and felt the quality isn't as good on the mk3 compared to the mk2? The splitting door seals, the parcel shelf and some more brittle plastics, just to name a few, are one of the things where I think the MK3 isn't as good as the mk2. What do you think?

Fix that awful Focus MK3 parcel shelf easily at home

    Yes, I found the Mk3 to be a downgrade in quality overall.  Though the touch-points did feel a bit nicer than they did in Mk2.

    I agree the touch points do feel more refined, and soundproofing too.
