Hi guys, thanks for all the replies! I did read them all last night but didn't get a chance to respond as I was rushing. Yup, car sold and all sorted with the plate. Surprisingly, it's very straightforward like you all said. Thanks again!

Firstly, I'm now convinced that DVLA is the most useless organisation in Britain, and it's probably about time it got privatised. Tried to ring them with a private number plate enquiry 4 or 5 times today, at different intervals (all outside of peak hours) and kept getting the automated message...

Can't go wrong!

Cheers guys. Actually managed to find some at my local garage this morning. Got it for free as well :D

Sorry for late response, been very busy with work. Wanted to replace the unit as the entire thing is quite worn out, not just the buttons. Ash, that's a great guide - haven't had time to read through all the comments but skimmed through and saw someone mentioning that they managed to get the...

Hi, I urgently need a roll of hi viz reflective tape (like the one in the link below) for tomorrow, so I obviously don't have time to order it online and wait for delivery. eBay - Item # 390910286394 Any idea where I might be able to get one in an actual retail store so I could go and...

Haha no way, had no idea that was the case, I must've made a massive fool of myself countless times thus far so thanks for the heads up! I ordered the part today from Trade Part Specialists, only cost me £8. I'm also considering changing the air conditioning control unit with the newer one and...

That's brilliant - thanks Ash!

So it's a lower mirror trim :) cheers guys, will give Audi a ring tomorrow

Thanks matey! It's a 2004 reg A3, 3 door sportback coupe. Hopefully I won't have to buy the entire casing as it also means having to spray it..

I know most of you don't like bodykits but here's mine

Hi guys Can someone help me with the name of this part (see red arrow)? It's the black bit of plastic that goes under the mirror casing to hold it in place? Mine is broken and I need a replacement but have no idea what it's called. Thanks in advance! Jason

Ok, clearly there was a misunderstanding - I thought you meant that ALL hid kits will blow the wiper motor. Of course I won't buy the £30 on a kit, was just wondering what could explain the huge price difference but it's starting to make more sense now. Btw, is the original audi ballasts what...

Didn't you just say you're getting a hid kit from WellDone?

Thanks for the input, JJ Do let us know how it goes, and which kit you decide to go with :) In the mean time, I did get a response from one of the headlight retailers on ebay regarding the same question: "hi, yes its exactly the same, they take h7 bulbs for the dipped beam, ebay item number...
