  • Absent 90 window trip peace?

    Hey folks, so Ive gotten my hand on some 100 electric seats, however Ive ran into issue of fitting memory selector switch into 90's trim.


















    Missing peace is 7D. In etka it's completely absent, what I currently have is 893867171G which is closest code I have, but it's equvalent to 7B in etka.
    However here is the funny bit, in official 90Q marketing video the plate exists @16:15 :

    Really odd, the promo video is only place where I've seen the trim peace, would be thank full for any info or lead to this (that is if it even exists).

      Checked 893 867 171 J , yep it's correct one however can't find anyone selling it, audi tradition doesn't have these ether, code exists but that doesn't confirm existance of actual part.

      Uppon further digging I did found panel for it : 441 959 521 B that should fit in B4 doorcards, the same one is apparently used in audi 200/V8, witch means I will have to swap doorcards to B4 ones. However I'm still wondering if original b3 switch plate exists or will I have to mod and make my own out of molding sculp and epoxy or something to make it period correct.

        C3 panel will not fit, it's way too long.
        But there's this - came in some B3 coupes:


        895959527F 01C
        8.69e @ tradition, but has its own door handle as this panel is slightly longer than windows only version.

          Thanks for the info!
          If I understand correctly does this mean that if I get b4 sedan doorcards then I must integrate specific b4 doorhandle aswell? As far as I know coupe door handles are longer than sedan ones.

            Handles are the same on all body styles. There's 3 types - plastic, soft and soft for panels with memory buttons. I'm trying to find memory one with no luck for quite some time.

              I bet many who scrapped these cars didn't even knew that the handle was different.
              This begs the question though, can't the regular 4window handle be modded to hold longer switch plate?

              Don't have picture of original part, this is image from handle with 4 electric windows, but by the looks of image you posted, I see that there is extra material that can be removed from bottom part. Sounds really sketchy but if done correctly wouldn't look too bad.
              Wish I had the original trim peace and handle image to compare it to.

                      Sorry, I forget things very often.
