    Default What's the black square thing – 14-05-2018,09:27 PM
    I had to use my spare wheel today and in the tool kit found this black square thing with a rubberised edge. Can't for the life of me find out what it's for. It's shown in this link. Any ideas

    No. The jack has a round cylinder that fits into a hole under the car

    Think that’s the thing for removing the rear lights to change a bulb. Only for non led clusters.

    The picture shows A5 kit, not A6/C7

    Can confirm this, for removing outer cluster for changing bulbs, or for removing LED cluster in event of failure.
