Leather handbrake trim anyone?

Post by GlynRS2 » Sun Jan 18, 2004 10:48 am

I was feeling a bit disappointed with nasty plastic handbrake trim on my RS2 - just not in keeping with the rest of the car. So I searched on the ETKA and found this:

From Audi Cabriolet 01/99 - 08/00:
part no.: 8G0 711 463 05A
description: handbrake lever trim (leather) satin black
price: £34.00 + vat

I will give Martyn a ring at VAG Parts and see if he can get me one - I will let you know what it is like.

Hi Glyn,
Entirely agree about handbrake look (and usefulness, too!). Any joy with the leather kit? MUST be an improvement..!

Greg

p.s. im sure the guys on the S2 forum would probably be interested in a group buy on these too.
