What size flexible pipe do you have to use on the TT vents, I have 2" at present but the TT vents look bigger ?
Do you have to fit a step up adaptor ?

Cheers for any advice....

Do you have a picture of the vents?
I have some in the workshop for another project but am not sure if they are Audi.

Air hose fitting is square with radiused corners.
60mm across flats with an 18mm rad.
Also only about 15mm engagement.

Forgot to say they are quite deep as they have a butterfly valve and gears etc.
If this is important, as I suspect it will be, I can measure that as well.

Clive theAudi vents are very good looking and certainly several steps above the factory pieces which are functional but a bit utilitarain. Vintage Air offers some nice alloy vents which are the same size hose as the factory piece and the same depth. Might be a much easier way to go. Just a thought. Lee

For ref Clive, I fitted them with the air hose as supplied by the factory. Not sure of the diameter of it though?

As Steve said, they are square on the rear with radiused corners. I just squeezed it over and secured with a cable tie IIRC.
