    Automatic boot opening

    All genuine parts from Audi mate, no modifications needed, just swap the struts and hinges, attach the springs, press the boot button on your fob and up it pops.. Heres my old Audi doing it.

    Well mines all done, sprayed and fitted the hinges today, works a treat Mike, on the left hand hinge what have you done about the cover as it does not go over the cable now because of the spring, have you just tie-wrapped the cable to the hinge'

    I agree with Bez, Something similar happened to me ages ago when i had a land rover and the Asian guy wanted money, he wouldnt give me his insurance details so i rang the police, he soon shot off.

    Mike i didnt need the hinges as they were identical to the ones allready fitted to my car, i did need the gas struts though.
