Can anyone point me to or can we create one here, a handy list of what options can be retro fitted and appx costings??

I know phone and Nav can be, I think the cool box can be, how about blinds? Auto boot lid open and other stuff??

Many thanks

Jason

Thats a good idea along with contacts on where to get them done.

possibly contacts also, not sure if that will breach certain forum rules, maybe a mod can advise??

Maybe Craig can start with CD changer, Nav, Phone and iPod options??

Having lived with the car for two weeks, I would really like the auto boot lid opener? not sure if thats even possible?

Found this http://www.audi-accessories.co.uk/index ... roductId=4

Certainly a list of all retro fitable options with appx costings would be very useful...

Me too, I suspect it's just a bigger spring.

Can't belive the first owner of my car (who ticked most of the boxes) missed this one!

I have the auto boot opener and to be honest its a bit tempremental, 6 times out of 10 it will open first time but the rest of the time it can take ages to open... usually by which time I have opened it myself :)

Had a quote from dealer for boot lid retro fit..... wait for it..... £340!! for a £30 factory option

its around £140 in parts alone, two new hinges and two new gas struts and the hinges need painting....

Hey ho....

Great little extra for £30 but not worth worrying about for that amount. I rather save my money and put towards some titan RS4 wheels.
