Mounting something behind the upper B pillar trim or deleting the bulkhead?
It's for a coat hanger ImageImageImage
I'm fitting the caddy life plastics and have a hole in the plastics where the factory coat hanger goes

Well pleased with Audi handle lights. Come on with headlights. Need to see if I can get coming home etc lights working.

Dash Caddy looks brighter in photo than in real life. It’s linked to foot lights so goes on with door opening. Not on all the time.

Got mine from scrappy, got all the bits rather than having to buy them separately from Audi at £55

@pete3dmunds

I’ve been looking for those exact parts for ours for a while so that I can fit our coat hangers,

I don’t suppose you have the part number fo4 them?

Thanks
Katie

Swapped out the standard spare wheel for a 16” one, the wider tyre made the carrier a bit to tight for comfort so I dropped a 14mm nut over the bolts to act as a spacer

Stripped the rest of the ply and OEM boards, removed headliner and bulkhead and gave it a good clean.

Hey guys just fitted and wired new fog lights today fleebay specials they came with a loom and relay I’ve seen quite a few posts on here about installation I read somewhere that the wire for the switch has to be put into the number 10 pin on the back of the rotary switch ( provided you have the switch that has front and rear fog light options) much frustration found out that it’s the number 7 pin not number 10Image
