yes, several totally worn out ones (with the wood showing thru) ;)

but seriously, all mine have been replaced with genuine off european ebay - they still aren't cheap :(

(I only drive with nappa gloves on now, for the sake of the gearknobs)

Anyone who belongs to a club like this and then throws away a rare and so easily broken part without asking if somebody on here wants them is ........ but were beginning to find this a bit of a theme for you Michael. ::)

I did have them on tm for months and noone wanted them so they cant be that rare

The guy who did mine, might be able to put a new cover on yours? PM me if you're interested.

they are that rare and its easy for somebody not to need them and be looking on trademe for a few months but many would have paid you for the postage to haave them as spare if you had offered on a specialist Audi site like this.
No worries tho :) maybe just something to think about in the future. Things like indicator lenses are rare and do break.

I do, but it has already had repairs, years ago, and has a piece out of it now from hitting a rabbit (I have the piece tho)

Damn wabbit. I have one that has a piece out from hitting a road cone - maybe our pieces match. I'd also like the fruit salad lights from the centre of the tailgate. Let me know if you want to sell.
