.There are 2 holes on the fronts and it can easily be put in the wrong one ( ask JPC )  :laugh: The design is such that once they are locked in with the weight of the car, they are not coming out without a serious fight.  :rolleye:
Two holes on the front? Do you meen the two holes at the rear and use the front one? Im confused.

Heres what i bought last week with prices for anyone interested

Ramp Lifting pads from Audi S3 RRP exc VAT
(x1) 8P0 802 845 Front Left Jack Pad £8.03
(x1) 8P0 802 846 Front Right Jack Pad £8.03
(x4) 8N0 804 583 Rubber Buffers £1.53 each
(x2) 8P0 802 847 Plastic Jack Pad Plugs £8.03 each

Sadly i did not get them fitted intime for my car to go into the dealers and i now have large bits of sealer scrapped off and hanging down from the inside of the jacking points on the front of the sills.  :sad:


So are the back ones fitted on the holes nearest the front, Or the holes nearest the rear. As Teutonic_Tamer thread also shows the rear ones used.  :confused: TTs thread on his fitted to his mk5

Cheers Davey.

Maybe I should of said, I'd bought and fitted a set ages ago.

I now find though that some garages can't get onto them and I can't get to them even with a low slung trolley jack.  Car is on a set of Eibach Sportline springs, so must of lowered it too much for these to be of use for me really.

OEM Audi S3 jack pads fit nice !!  :thumbsup:

A posting I did on another forum:

front:

rear:



Fitting instruction is German, but the picturs tell the complete story:

http://www.a3quattro-forum.de/pdf/Wagenheberaufnahme.pdf


parts numbers:

8N0 804 583 rubber (4 x)
8P0 802 845 cover left front (1 x)
8P0 802 846 cover right front (1 x)
8P0 802 847 cover left + right rear (2 x)


Use some wax spray to conserve the body and silicon to help slip in.


Not the same:

As you can see I prefer the S3 8P / TT 8J parts. Only these close the plastic trim!
