Replace Lunar/Black interior with Magma/Black?

**Captain Tuttle** · 03-03-2017 06:33 AM

Is it possible to economically source a complete magma/black interior: front/rear seats, door panels, shifter boot, steering wheel for a reasonable price? Maybe from a totaled or wrecked S4?

My 2012 interior looks great, but since I am planning to keep this car, I was daydreaming about doing an interior swap. Has anyone tried this? Any tips on sources for an interior from a junkyard or recycler?

Is this even feasible?

Maybe you could find someone to do a swap with you? Would be a fun day in the garage.

Likely hood of a junkyard to carry a b8 is pretty rare. The cars usually get sold at a private auctions to someone who parts out cars. The junkyards near me don't ever carry even b7 audis. I don't think I have ever seen a b8. I think your best bet is to buy a front end damaged S4 from either a private auction or off the internet. Then ship it to your house and swap it yourself. I don't really see another way unless someone on ebay or craigslist is doing a partout.

Saw this thread in classifieds. This is for 2013 though so don't know if this would completely work for you.

DING! Won't get easier or be a better opportunity. 2013 should fit just fine in the 2102. If you need some help with the swap I can help you out. I'm in Bethlehem.

Thanks, I just PM'd that guy. Pretty funny that there is one for sale right in the classifieds. I should have checked, but who would have thunk it.

Now you need to figure out how to get it from VA. BTW, I have Magma and I think it looks fantastic

Thank you, I'd like to take you up on that if I move forward with the swap. FYI, I am in Williams Twsp. just off 611.

I live close to Chevy 21 next to Saucon Park. I'm sure I can enlist the help of my friend Bob (bpp) as well. He helped me with the swap of my grill. We're both retired Audi guys and have too much time on our hands! Let me know. You can PM me if you want.
