AC Pic request - hose & drier behind wing

[Error404]

I'm trying to find some pictures of the hose routing and mounting point for the AC drier behind the driver side wing on the ABY. Can anyone help?

I looks like there were perfect pictures in this old thread but they are long gone!

I believe there are two studs for mounting the P-clips that retain the hose, both of which are missing on my car. Also a bracket that the drier is held onto with a jubliee clip? I'm going to have to drill & bolt on the P-clips and fabricate a bracket to hold the drier, but I'm not sure where it is supposed to live exactly.

Any pics much appreciated

Cheers
Alex

Not an S2 (RS2) and not the best pictures but hope they'll help anyway....

That is useful, thanks Stefano

If anyone has any more pleas keep them coming

Mr Saltino per chance?

Cheers

Pic from David's 3B - so what is the drier actually attached to?

To a metal "lip" (you can't call that a bracket/holder) using a jubilee clip bracing the "lip" and the drier.
You can see the "lip" it's semiarched shaped on my second and third pics.
Poor engineering I know but that's how mum Audi did it....

Thanks Stefano
I see the piece you mean, a little part welded to the chassis leg. Its not there on my cq. I will have to fabricate something

If anyone has any more pictures of the position of the studs to bolt the P-clips too that would be excellent

Has anyone got a pic of where the pipe goes through the hole in the inner arch?

ive just broken a 2.6 cab with air con so ive more than likely got the bracket the drier attaches to the drier seems to be in the same place.

Cheers Shaun, but its welded to the chassis, so I will just fabricate something to bolt on

If you can snap some pics though that would be much appreciated

V6 pipes system is different, and dryer is inside underbonnet space but not behind the inner fender.

Managed to find only these pics. Sorry, they might be useless.

I have some pictures of new OEM pipes saved from aud-tradition site. Don't You need them?

Here's a couple from my car. Hard to believe that it used to be red at this point. I can take a couple more if you need. The liners are still off the car so it's an easy job still. I have a new set of hoses I need to install anyway and can place them and then snap a pic if needed.
