Fitment nuance per vehicle
Renault Clio
Boot volume drops by ~90 L on the E-Tech hybrid because the traction battery sits under the boot floor - the loading floor also loses its adjustability, so any accessory that assumes the two-level boot floor (subwoofer trays, false-floor organisers) only fits the pure-petrol TCe versions. Rear headrests are fixed on entry Evolution, removable on Techno up.
Volkswagen Polo
The Polo's boot floor is height-adjustable on most UK trims - lower it to gain around 25 mm of depth for a subwoofer or dog crate, raise it flush with the loading sill for wheel-well-free organisers. GTI seats have integrated headrests, so universal seat-back organisers with headrest straps still fit but the tartan-panelled bolsters trap Velcro-backed liners.
