    A3 sportback front speaker depth.

    Thankyou for the reply. Thats good, I remember seeing a metal bar through the speaker hole, is this the only thing to worry about? Does the window intrude? Also does water have any chance of getting into that void?

    A3 Seat Swap. From se to s-line. Passenger seatbelt sensor?

    Hi, Thanks for viewing. As for the seat buckle, yes i did have a cable running from that as well as the occupancy sensor. If your new seats dont have it just swap the seatbelt stalk over, is just one multi-spline bolt. These both need to be fitted. My car already had ambiant lighting in so...

    A3 Seat Swap. From se to s-line. Passenger seatbelt sensor?

    Hi, I have installed the new seats this weekend with great success. I decided to swap the pressure sensor over and it works with no lights on the dash board. The seat came apart easily and went back together just the same, and doesn't look like its ever been apart. I have swapped the under...

    A3 Seat Swap. From se to s-line. Passenger seatbelt sensor?

    Thanks for the reply. Are the airbags normally trouble free? For example, if the wire and connector you can visably see from the seat looks ok, is it normally ok to install? Or are they known to fail?
