I went to two auto shops near me and said they dont want to take a chance getting behind that lighting fixture to do the clear corner, (i have the bulbs (solaris)).

I also went to audi service and they dont wanna do it because of inspection and i could get a ticket, but i told them thats not a problem.

WHAT DO I DO?

-keep searching?
-perform myself, what do i exactly need then.

THANKS

I would do it myself. Check the archives, there are write-ups for the b6. if not just find the b5 write-up...same idea. I would assume you have 2 options to get to get to the amber, which would either be baking or drilling.

this should help

Once you get the bumper off its easy. Get a friend to help you and it is a piece of cake.

Just make sure that you seal it up really well.
If you're worried about extra seal, just buy some black sealant to add yourself when you go to close the headlight up.
