Re: 97 A4 - Why no option for the light bulb on the right rear side?
Hello Dave,
Same thing happened to me with my 99 A4. I could not find a match
anywhere. No bulb would fit in there. So finally, I simply cut/trimmed
the plastic with an exacto knife until the bulb fully fit.
I'm sure there is probably a better solution but it suited me fine.
