Went to the hairdressers car park - waited for someone to arrive in a convertible TT & ripped them out! Price = £0.00

Cheers guys, I have only done 2 of them at the moment as i might be designing slightly different ones for the windscreen? (these will be machined from Ally) If not then i will get some more. I got them from an Audi TT Spares shop online. I got the idea after seeing what Aston Martin had done to a Nobles interior at Noble London. I have some other plans for the interior and will post soon.

Hi Ross, looking good cool. I saw that car at Noble London...a black 3R I think. Had only done something like 3k miles...lovely car and special interior.

Yeah, it was very nice....apart from the random electric window switches!

I'm going to see if i can order some more dash vents so if anyone want them could you please let me know as i might be able to get a better price.

I have taken some pictures of what's involved to change the vents to the TT ones!

The old vents!


Removing the old vents! (pop out middle then undo 3 screws)







Grind away a bit at a time!


Keep clip on end of existing ducting!


Cut old vent surround in half!


Once cut, attach to new vent flush with the end!


The new vents!


Use bonding sealant to fix cut section flush with end of new vent!


Attach to the existing ducting!


Finished!

Great fitting instr. Only thing i am a bit put off by, is that they are easily reconisable as TT vents.....
Now some custom ali ones you were suggesting would be great..
