Fitment nuance per vehicle
Ford Focus
The Active trim sits ~30 mm higher with plastic wheel-arch cladding and a slightly different roof profile, so roof-bar leg lengths differ from Titanium/ST-Line - check the fitting guide for Focus Active specifically. All hatch trims share the same boot mouth, but ST-Line seats have integrated bolsters that trap universal seat covers with elastic side hooks.
Skoda Octavia
The Octavia hatch's liftback (large hinged rear window) opens far higher than a normal saloon boot, so overhead-mounted bike carriers and roof boxes need at least 200 mm of clearance behind the car when the tailgate is raised. The 'Simply Clever' kit includes an ice scraper in the fuel-flap, an umbrella in the driver's door and a boot-net in most trims - so aftermarket boot organisers should not duplicate what is already fitted.
