Have you got a link to where you bought these lights from? Did you check with a garage if they would pass an MOT?
-
Post a photo of your wheels

I’ve got the S3 alloys from 2012MY on my A3 and I love them, otherwise GTI or Gold R wheels maybe even scirocco
-
Hi, you would need an additional control module to get the buttons to work but yes the steering wheel will fit
-
Hi I haven’t swapped RS bumpers but upgraded my 2005 to a bumper from a 2012 car… nothing required unless you wanted to upgrade your rear lights to LED if you haven’t already
-
Check the offset as I tried A5 wheels but they stuck out too far
-
Hi, search for 8P LED upgrade wiring harness, it’s possible because I did it on my 2005 A3 Sportback and now has the later lights from 2012 car
-
The catch in the boot is electronic so might be the switch on the handle that’s broken and needs replacing
-
Hi, if it’s the pre-facelift I think before 2008 it will fit so basically look for a bumper from a car with indicators in the side wing… I have a 2005 Audi and upgraded my bumper to S-Line for a cleaner smooth look and fitted perfectly
-
Hi, I’m having the same issues, are you getting a bulb failure warning light come up in your dashboard cluster though?
-
Hi do you have a tailgate spoiler or not? I might have one spare around - genuine

Run USB power to driver's sunvisor for hands free phone

If you have the AUX socket just get an Amazon Alexa Auto, plugs into USB and AUX then automatically connects when you switch it on -
Hi, I know there was a ‘black edition’ which came with a black grille surround. Fairly easy to change the grille just need to remove the front bumper - I’ve gone for a honeycomb aftermarket grille looks a lot better in my personal opinion.

If you’ve got the other ambient lights like the two red dot LED’s above your mirror and illuminated interior door handle lights you should have this already but doubt it would’ve died as they are LED. The door handle LED’s aren’t especially bright but this one in the centre is easily visible

I will personally just pay that little bit extra for fuel and go premium unleaded, government still taxes that heavily so either way they win
