Anyone interested in Euro Sun Visor group buy from an AZ vendor?

[ThunderDent]

Thinking about swapping out the stupid airbag label visors for Euro spec ones with no warning labels. From what I've read:

•Canada has larger labels than US
•Lots of folks use rubbing alcohol to get stickers off, but it leaves a giant spot where the sticker once was.
•Euro spec ones available w/out sticker labels and w/ telescoping feature.
•Visors are cross model for all B8/B8.5 I believe.

And I'm not into my car looking half-assed.

Any vendors out there interested that have the means to source or possibly do a group buy?
Any peeps interested?

Mine are black (Audi calls interior color Sabre Black)

This is what they look like.....pic taken in my RHD UK SQ5

[ThunderDent]

Thanks for the pic man. Much appreciated.

I've read they have a clip there, where ours do not.

Do yours have the telescope feature?

[IanSQ5]

What is the telescope feature?

[ThunderDent]

They extend out toward the center of the car if needed on the rod.

Not sure if ours do this. I've seen threads where other Audis do.

[sszyma]

Why not just try and see if they telescope (they do).

[IanSQ5]

No, nothing like that on mine.

You can get it but it was an option and TBH i thought it was a waste of money.

[PurduinaM3]

I'd definitely be interested in doing a group buy, those stickers on ours drive me nuts ! Love that clean look and would really love the telescoping feature. Quite a few times I've found myself dropping the sunglass holder just to block the sun creeping in over the mirror.

[ThunderDent]

That's 2.

[agautohaus]

I'm interested... LMK if i can help source. shoot me PM with part numbers and I will get with my contacts!

[ThunderDent]

That would be great man.

No idea how to get those part numbers tho.

Let me look into it.

Maybe someone can make more out of it than I can.

[DocTJ]

if you cant get them or too expensive, i think these stickers on top of the other stickers would work:

[ThunderDent]

Well played on both.

I'd prefer 2 stickers of the top myself!

AG, look into these and see what you come up with. I found a thread where a guy swapped his RS5 US Spec visors for Euro ones with extendable arms/no labels.
http://www.a5oc.com/forums/audi-a5-s...2882?_k=n4wbkf

I verified that the current US RS5 has the exact same part numbers as the SQ5 (there is apparently a difference if you don't have the pano roof, no clue why). But regardless the numbers should be the same. The US Spec ones end in an "F" and the Euro/no label/extendable/black (sole) ones end with the "H" it looks like.

Depending on the price I might be interested too...

[EYE4SPEED]

Interested depending on price. If these are cheap to pick up in Germany, I can hand carry back a few.

In German for standard model price is around 95 EUR and model alcantara is 130 EUR

[jpsjr]

I'm interested if the price is reasonable.

[ThunderDent]

Didn't know you could get them in Alcantara.

I really want these, but have no idea how to order something non-us based with an outside part number.

[BG SQ5]

I'm down for this as well. I much rather have every passenger sign a waiver stating that they understand the risks of airbags than have the god-awful stickers! Given my foot problems, I should make them sign waivers anyways, haha

[ThunderDent]

There are a few things in the works guys.
Will get back soon. Feel free to keep adding interest in the thread.

[DBFL]

I'm interested too. And if Alcantara is an option I may way a set of those for the S4 as well - depending on price.

[ThunderDent]

The black Alcantara is an interesting development.

Anyone able to figure out part numbers??

Spijun your amazing on getting information! Thank You! As per my connection in the UK, the standard non labeled sunvisors are $205.00 shipped to US in black. That's the lowest price they can go. I'll check on the Alacantra ones now.

Jose

[ThunderDent]

Spijun,

Thank you so much for the helpful info.
Go big or go home.

Going to do the Alcantara visors, and since I have no other Alcantara in the car, going to swap the door cards to Sabre black Alcantara to match. I like it better on accessories than in my ass (too sweaty).

Is that price for the set of 2 or for each sun visor?

[spijun]

You can try here, has a international delivery

or
https://cars245.co.uk/item/audi-volk...25M-sun-vizor/


Of course, if there are more interested buyers can ask for discount

[EYE4SPEED]

Any pics of the alcantara? I have the door cards already and the matching steering wheel. Would be a nice addition, especially if I can pickup a set in Germany...

[ThunderDent]

Feeler: If any '16 Q5/SQ5 folks that got the Alcantara door cards and have switched them to Nappa like the 13-15 models got, I'm interested in buying the Sabre black Alcantara. If not I'll look up part numbers and buy online. PM if so.

[jpsjr]

Yes, that for two of them. I placed my order yesterday for a set.

Lol!! Your going to be the sunvisor mule? TSA is going to love you!

Jose

[ThunderDent]

Well, hell. I looks like the door cards aren't swappable.
It's plastic welded together as one piece, so it's a swap out of the whole door panel!
Even at a discounted price it's almost $800 per door for a new panel. So I guess I'll keep my silver Nappa there!

I'd really have liked that black Alcantara look there.

[jpsjr]

Holy Crap! I think that silver will work for you!

Just ordered 2 of the Alcantara euro visors from Cars245.
Their site is easy to use and accepts PayPal.
You can ship Regular mail or DHL for faster ship.

We'll see what they look like when they come. It's tough to see what the hell you're getting when you are trying to order international.
No good way to get non-USA Audi parts.

So we'll see how they look when they come.

In the EKTA system it should be listed as OLA (Without special plates/stickers/safety certificates).

I am hoping you get the 0LA version. So is it about $129 (Pound) per side? The description in the link far below says something about left/right, but part number is for only one side.

[BarryT82]

Check with WorldImpex.com. They're ordered Euro parts for me in the past and they were very reasonable.

[ThunderDent]

It was $128.36 USD per side.

You just have to enter in each part number to make sure you get both.

Hopefully it will come correct. I'll let everyone know what they are when they arrive.
It says special order on the page and 7-10 days handling + 10-15 days shipping.
