Quite agree - the roof box should be LONGER to match the car roof in aesthetics...

like ziss:Monaro-Azz wrote: So the RS6's over there have a battery box that mounts to one of the side panels in the boot/cargo bay which houses the battery so they can fit a spare in.
Maybe see if you can find one of those battery boxes on ebay or through a specialist Audi wrecked over there?
Or you may be able to order one directly from Audi here as it's a stock part?

Re: Battery relocation on rs6
What would be the point, as I understand that you can't fit a 19" RS6 tyre in the spare well, even if the battery is out!?

Re: Battery relocation on rs6
why does it need to be a 19inch? These guys clearly have a wheel in there. What about a 17 with a deflated tyre? Then just pump it up when needed?

Re: Battery relocation on rs6
A 17" rim won't clear the brembo's on the RS6, it clashes with the caliper.
