    Hi,

    I've been renewing various parts on my car and one part is giving me some problems as i can't seem to find anybody who stocks it anywhere!
    I've circled the part i'm trying to source in red, in the image below.
    I think what is causing the problem is the fact it can't be removed from a vehicle without damaging it (so i read), which counts out the numerous 'breakers yards' i've been trawling.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi again,

    Thanks for helping me zero in on the actual part number. I've googled for a while now and it seems like lots of Russian/Polish websites that don't have the part. Is there somebody who i should be checking this part number with?

    Sorry for being such a newb, it's my first car and i haven't got a clue!

    Thanks

    Well that's a pure "couldn't see the wood for the trees" moment!

    I'll contact my local Audi people and see if I can get one. Thanks for the help.

    P.S - I couldn't get the part number for the rear licence plate holder aswell, that could do with replacing too?

    If you register here (It's free but compulsory) and then click the "Parts Catalogue" link, you can see the parts diagrams and lists and sometimes the prices in Euros.

    PS, it seems down ATM, it has been up and down like a whore's drawers recently.
