Done................... I'd be interested, depending on price

I have to echo everyone else. Used this guide to change to my black S3 optics grille today. Took about 1.5hrs (even in the rain). Clear, concise and easy to follow! Thanks!!

Guys, I've just bought a black optics grille to put onto my facelift A3. It came with a S3 badge on it (pn 8P0 853 736 A). Does anyone have the part number for the S-Line badge so I can change it out.

Looks like I might have spoken to soon. With the CH/LH lights enabled via VCDS but turned off in the DIS the headlights are now permanently on when the switch is set to DRL. Sidelight 'icon' on the switch is lit and the interior eqpt lit as it would be if you had the switch on side or...

Same question as above........ my VCDS cable arrives tmrw so would be grateful to know how to do it.

Anyone know if these part numbers will fit an 08 facelift 8P3 A3 S-Line? I like the 'honeycomb' look! Bit steep at £42 each though!! :ninja:

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread. Did the ashtray delete today only issue was I couldn't get the HVAC out. With a spot of patience and long enough socket extensions you can reach the 8mm bolts at the front of the grab handles so therefore it is possible to complete this job without...
