Hi Welshwoody,
The AUDI tech is sort of right. Both the cupholder and card tray mechanisms are the same width so they both fit. The problem comes when you try and replace the switch surround facia.
The cup holder facia (front bit with cup logo) is wider that your current card tray facia...

Hi All,
I have a question about the lift and slide mechanism on new A3/S3 3 door.
On my 56 A3 you lifted the handle and slid the seat forwards to access the back. Then when you pushed the seat back, it when back to the position it was in before you slid it forwards - if that makes sense.
