Default haha, sounds like fun....

only need a dremel, PVC piping, duct tape, and an air inlet valve. I'm sure between the two of us we can figure out how to fab one up or modify the Audi part.

Default If you want the appropriate glove box you need to order...

Part number:

8E1 857 035 E (lhd air cooled glove box)
and then add your color code:
EC3 - light platinum grey
26Z - swing dark grey
3ZQ - Maritime Blue
4QC - Twist Beige
6PS - Soul Black


If you have the Glove Box CD Changer you need to order: 8E1 857 035 D and the same color codes apply. ImpexFap.com doesn't seem to list the proper part as being available, but they do list a 8E1 857 035 G, which I cannot find a listing for since my parts CD only goes through the 2003MY.

Regards,
Dan

Default Perfect!...

We'll save that mod for the next-next gtg. I'm putting DVDs all around in the minivan (top, dash, headrests). A "cooler" would be perfect!

Default the "C" version is what we have stock.....I fogot you could use the "D" version too but you loose

room in the Large space because the area where our owner's manual is made slightly bigger to fit the glove box CD changer. It's still going to cost around $150 since this is a large item.
