MOT Fail

Post by Daveperc » Tue Aug 02, 2022 5:34 pm

Hi - not as dramatic as the title suggests!

I have a fail due to the repeater indicator in the driver's side wing mirror - please can someone give me the part number?

Pre-facelift model (63 reg)

TIA, Dave

4G5941101B Around £50 each. Probably worth putting the cheaper dynamic ones available online or ebay

Many thanks - and good thought re ebay - both sides ordered for about half the price of a single one from Audi! :audibash:

Cheers

Upgraded all my lamps tonight, bought a set from Aliexpress for under 16 quid, what a difference ! They look very bright but in fact are totally spot on, took pics in a really dark car park.

Kit comes with 18 lamps plus plastic tool.

UK providers looking for in excess of £50.00 for the same result, more than likely made in the same factory in China.

One of the most cost effective upgrades with superb results so far !..

Indicators are next for sure..ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Oh man, these are a total headache ! Watched a few vids and the guys are like this, that and then this ..pop !......off the cover comes. I don't seem to be getting anywhere fast with these.. looks like Ive whipped out all the relevant screws..any guidance would be good, I just don't want to start forcing anything, mine seems to have different locating/fasteners than YT vids..ImageImage

Good luck

I’ve just upgraded mine recently, yours do look different internally to mine though? I’ve got carbon mirror shells and only had to remove 2 screws and pry some clips apart. I did have to use quite a bit of force to get them apart though
