How about a 3d printed Audi 5 cylinder engine?

You provide the models and the filament (I don't have that many colors) and I'd be happy to oblige!

That is genius. Yes. I shall do it. Just don't let me forget! It will have to wait until I get my avant back to take measurements and test in, or at least until I can run to the farm and grab the printer. I haven't taken it to work with me since the avant broke because of all the chaos surrounding that situation.

But really, I think that's a fantastic idea. I'll name it after you when I put it on the product page if you want lol

I could do with some cup/waterbottle holders in my S6 and 80. Where do they attach?

They go in that area below the arm rest. Not sure how to describe it, but it's a rectangular area which you can slide two inserts into for cup holders. You could provably just use velcro to stick them in there.

Couple different styles, I think both can work. I do know that the C4 holders are direct swap to the B3, that's what I'm rolling with right now. They use velcro from factory.

I'll say right off the bat that they wouldn't be normal interior part quality in terms of finish. Not right out of the printer anyway. But they'd be very functional. And with a little sanding and some interior parts paint (like the soft touch they use from the factory) it could look oem.

I'd be most interested in doing the vertical inserts at first.

That's what I was thinking too. The other ones are more detailed, you'd need a spring or some kind of mechanical tensioner which adds complexity.

I see. It seems to me that the little tray in the B4 is shorter than in the C4.

Thanks, I still need to find time to finish the circuit boards. Wish I had more experience with that

Universal versions of the trunk mounted grocery hooks in the B6.

I suspect I could do something like that. What isn't universal about the one that is out there? Looks like it could screw into anything?

I'd suspect they're just one of those kind of rare factory options, as the FS and partout threads always make mention of them if they're available. As for universal, my only guess is people may be reluctant to drill into the sheetmetal? If that's the case, perhaps some magnets or an adhesive would be an option. Just spitballing here.
