need to know what kind of seats (bucket or comfort), what kind of car (cab / saloon etc), do you have phone prep in armrest?

I can probably fish out part number for a lid for an armrest with phone prep for a saloon with the leather pretty much matching the black bucket seats.

cab and saloon have differnet armrests and therefore different lids and I was told when sourcing my lid it made a difference as to which type of armrest you had (phone prep wired or not) - not convinced at that last bit but at £100 a pop you dont want to get it wrong too many times !

I have the same issue.
Dealer replaced the armrest but it looks wrong.
Sprint Blue loon with recaro buckets.
No phone prep.
Part number would be appreciated :)

Get the 3d printed one as Sar has mentioned - amazing bit of kit and MUCH better than the audi part plus you have bragging rights!

+1. Have to admit though I still haven't installed mine! Forgot all about it. Looks like a nicely made piece of 3D printed plastic though.
