Also I'm a bit concerned I might eat them on my way to work if I get a bit peckish.
You need to order them online through the Audi Congo catalogue. They're a bit specialist, and probably not for every one, but they work well with fat fingers and they're good for enticing monkeys at the drive through zoos :)
Can be slippery though

i bought a set thinking it would be a easy fit or i could change the backing plate but no
a £400 lesson but sold them to Glenn for his RS3 and recouped some of my money they also fit the C6 RS6

they are lovely thought billet aluminum very nice

you'll just have to live with the plastic ones or look at some after market ones but any i have seen just look a bit halfords
Yes thanks brooner!!
They are very good and have an engineered "click" on them when changing gear.
Miss them lots
