Hello.

I have recently bought myself a B6 Avant, I am in need of a few bits and pieces.

For a start, some of my window switches are quite worn, so could do with being replaced. Now, I have seen plenty on ebay and the like, but I was wondering if I could update the look slightly. So is it possible to get the switches with the chrome accents on them? If so, any idea where I could get them? Obviously I'd have to upgrade them all if I go this route.

Next up, when I had my ED30, there was a nice lad on the forum, who supplied all the LED interior bulbs, as well as number plate bulbs, as a "pack" for around £25 or so. Any such legend on here? Or any ideas where best to get such LED lights?

Also, the climate panel has some signs of wear. Mainly in the plus and minus buttons, where the red and blue look like they have "leaked" into a puddle of colour. Are these buttons replaceable? Or is it a new unit to freshen them up?

And my headunit is missing a button for the saved radio stations. Can these be replaced? To be honest, that is properly low on the list, as I may change out the headunit instead.

Nice avant and welcome.
1. There was some company in German selling chrome window switch sets on eBay but not sure if they are still selling them,from memory they were £190 a set. Have seen any others.
2. Yes we have a member on here that sells led packs. t8ups from EM tuning in the sponsor section.
3. Audi don't sell the buttons separately so it would mean a whole new unit which will be costly. I would go on eBay and find a good unit from a b7 and remove the faceplate and buttons and swap them onto yours. Don't be tempted to use the b7 unit in your b6 as your heated rear window won't work as the b7 unit is missing a relay for the rear window. Also they come in single or double din units depending what you have fitted.
4. It will probably be easier to get a head unit off eBay and just replace yours tbh.

@t8ups for your bulb upgrades. As for the buttons, eBay or someone breaking their car may be a good source of these parts.

Ok. So looks like breaking motors will be the order of the day then. Thanks.

I contacted the guy I got my mk4 LED's from as I found his contact details. I will see what he comes back with before trying t8ups. I found the thread I got the guys contact from, so will see what he says (as he was only £20 for the complete set).

Thanks all.
