also has anybody got the ashtray cup holders what are they like i tend to put my phone and keys in the cup holder but would like to get some of these for bits of money(change) so on

any help would be great thanks

Ye i agree mate looks smart did it come with the car or did you have to buy it
 
Nah didn't come with the car unfortunately!.. I got the part number from an A3 in Audi showroom and kept an eye out for it!.. Audi is something like 40 quid for it, but I found mine on ebay brand new was bidding and got it for 14 quid!lol...

There's one for sale in classifieds, I had a look at it but thought it maybe the wrong size, you could compare part numbers with the guy though.

I have the socket cover, bought from eBay, fits perfect doesn't foul the ashtray cover at all

I dropped a 1p coin into my socket and it blew the fuse, so it's a good idea to use a socket cover. Most of the time I have a phone charger in there...
