    the plastic handle on the side of the seat used to lower/raise the seat busted, but i can't find the part on ECS for the life of me. does anyone know what the part number is or how to locate it on ECS? i would definitely appreciate it.

    it's #2 by the way:

    I think it's #13 in the above posted genuine audi parts list. There are a lot of choices for #13, so just make sure you specify the color and which seat (left or right), each link is different.

    The handle is like $32 from the dealer. Here is the base part number for the left one (USA Driver's Side): 8E0 881 253 A

    But you need to provide the year, interior color code, and what side of this vin-split you are on: 8E-4-109 452*

    Or just look here and figure it out yourself:

    i recently ordered a platinum sunvisor clip cover, and it looked like my plastic was one shade darker than the platinum piece i ordered, so i'm guessing that would make grey the correct color for my interior? it's weird, my car looks like it's got a platinum color interior, but when you really look at it, my platinum sunvisor clip cover is just barely more of a lighter color than my interior.

    i get the feeling i might just drop by the dealer. buddy of mine broke it, so he's going to pay whatever i tell him it comes out to be. i'll grab my VIN while i'm at it though. no idea what my interior color code is though. i ordered a platinum sunvisor clip cover and it looks almost exactly the same, but it was actually slightly more of a lighter color.

    Interior color code is on the option code sticker in the trunk. It may be a single code (like LE for beige) or it may be 2 codes for a two-tone interior.

    You might be able to call the dealership with your VIN to get the interior color. It would save you a trip because there's a good chance they don't have it in stock. There should also be a color code inside your owners manual for the interior. I'm not sure which one it is but it's gotta be there in the front of the book.

    Edit:Walky, didn't even think about the tag in the trunk. It's gotta be there also since the color code of the paint is and that's what led me to believe it's in the owners manual.

    OP, in this picture NOC/LF is my interior color code. Yours should be in the same place inside your owners manual or on the trunk tag. LY9H would be the paint code.
