Map reading lights

[waring192]

My SB didnt come with them standard so im bidding on this on ebay:

Only thing I have noticed is that the vent in the middle is not the same as mine, I have 3 little vent areas, if that makes sense? Will it still be ok or is the bluetooth mic in there or something?

Cheers

That link takes you to an 8l 2002 model light. I'm guessing you have an 8p SB ?

Dont suppose you know the part number for the one im looking for do you?

 

[paddy]

This is what you are looking for but you missed this one. but you get the idea,

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....gory=10372&ssPageName=WDVW&rd=1#ht_500wt_1182

it needs to be 2004 onwards.with or without the roof switch

 

[waring192]

Yeah thats the one, dont want the roof switch though. So I can look for a4 as well?

 

[paddy]

I think the roof light was the same in the a4 from 2005 onwards but i cant be sure. "1 wheel" will know if he see's this thread..

 

[glasgowdubber]

Exactly the thing I'm looking for aswell, ****** me off Golf GTI comes standard with these, but a more expensive Audi doesnt..
Is it just a simple swap over, or is VCDS required?

 

[Khufu]

I forget to keep my eye open for one too. Im sure its just direct swap. I however need a light grey one, i guess that means more rare & perhaps less people bidding though LOL

 

[waring192]

Is it just a simple swap over, or is VCDS required?

Im sure I read that its a direct swap over with no coding required.

Are the rear lights just the same or is there a option on them also?

 

[audicruiser]

The part number from Audi is 8E0 947 135 D 6PS (S-Line dark interior colour) and they cost £69. They are direct swap and no coding required.

There is a map reading light for the rear also. Not sure on the wiring on this as the switches for the map lights light up with when the lights are on. The standard rear light doesn't light up so may have to run a feed to it from the light system...

Be carefull when you order via the 8E0 947 135 D part number. I tried to order one yesterday over the phone from the stealers. Firstly I was given a price of 921 DKK (£100), I was told that it was in stock. I quickly raced to the stealers to pick it up, but it was the standard front lighting console.

Fortunately, they would find out which part was the correct one, as they could not see a picture of one i ETKA. They called today with the right one. Price 543 DKK (£60) why it's half the price of the standard unit I don't know. He would not give me the part number over the phone. The only issue is that it has to be ordered from Germany, as the interior light pack in Denmark is very rare due to the price (£500), so they do not carry it as a spare part
