Guides

[Simon91]

Are there any guides for the following? I've trawled and not found anything

1 - Replacing grill with "RS" Grill
2- Replacing gear knob with quattro one (side note, they're ******* expensive since I last looked in 2016)
3- What size 18's can I replace the wheels with?

Also if anyone has links to the correct sized rings in black/carbon on eBay for the front/back that'd be most appreciated!

Hi Simon,
There is a guide for the RS grille change on an A1 forum, however mine's just being changed in a garage during having it wrapped as it is a bumper off jobby!

Secondly I believe Audi have a specialist key fo attach/remove the gear knob specifically so if you bought one, you'd have to take it to them...

You don't need the key to remove the old gear knob - I removed mine with pliers and then used them again to close the clip back onto the gear stick.

Is the RS style grill now available for the FL A1/S1? I know it was only the PFL previously.

Yep there is facelift version available now

The clip is a right pain unless you have the right pliers. I used a strong cable tie in place of the clip as I had normal pliers that damaged the clip during removal.
