Howdy peeps. Can anyone help.
I have an A3 Audi. The drivers side door handle soft pad where you rest your elbow has split and you can see the foam below.
Is it easy to replace or can i get any kind of plastic cover?
Any advice would be welcomed

Hi,
I have had a look at ETKA and the parts you want are available i.e you can replace the padded section - what do don't say is what A3 model you have and what year? 3dr or 5dr?

Let me know and I'll take a look for you.

If its a 2006 5dr, for example, the padded drivers door arm rest in SOUL (Black) is around £58.50 which includes VAT (£49.79 without).
If you are lucky, you might find one on ebay or try a breakers yard, but the price Audi charge seems quite reasonable for a brand new item!

I have stripped down door parts before (Mk4 Golf) so its not too difficult....just got to know where the srcews are and which bits to pull!;)
