So, I'm sitting in Eurotech Motorsports waiting area
So, there I am, sitting in that waiting room for the mods (front strut brace, trannyy mount, puddle lights) to be done. Watching some tv, another waiting customer comes in. I mention "please, put on the tv channel you'd prefer, I'm not really watching." He said "thanks" and turned to a car modification channel. Ok, cool. I had some calls to make even though I had my eye out, glancing at those cools mods. So, I ask him what are you getting done here, what car are you driving (2015 S4) etc. A few minutes later another waiting customer (got to be in his 20's (2017 A4 Tuned) ) comes in and we are having a great rolling conversation about Audi, Porsche, Tuning, speeding, radar, wheels and whatnot. I was having a great time and enjoyed our conversation. It's amazing the vibes that can happen when talking about things we are passionate about (in this case Audi's). It just may make me want to go to one of those Audi Club meetings!

I became aware of the tranny mount and front strut brace by members here posting their comments after having bought them. The postings were all positive - more solid feel, more responsive in turns, gears may shift or feel like their shifting smoother, etc. I have only driven it about 40-50 miles so I certainly can't comment authoritatively but the car did feel a little tighter and smoother on the highway, in stop and go, you would never notice a difference. I did not put it through sharp and/or quick turns, to notice a larger difference. But again, I have only driven it a fairly short distance, but am looking forward to really checking it out on longer rides. So, I would say, this isn't a mod like the tunes people get, where you see a night and day difference, but right now, it makes a great riding car even more fun to drive.
Regarding the puddle lights they installed - well, as I mentioned in the A4 forum, I'm not impressed, they are not what I was expecting - they are large, not terribly sharp and barely visible in daylight, but, I'll put that on me for not doing my homework beforehand.

Nice - I was trying to figure out where to get the OEM ring puddle lights when my car arrives, since they seem to be out of stock and discontinued everywhere. Hoping I can maybe find some in Europe while I'm over there picking up my car.

Well, not so nice as I don't like them. Hopefully Audi will start making them again. Wonder why no longer available?

I ordered mine on eBay, and they came rather quickly by FedX. I follow3ed the instructions on YouTube to install them, but I will tell you it was a bit tricky removing the existing ones.
Interesting, though- the existing puddle lights are rather dim. But the Audi LED Rings are incredibly bright and crisp. They make me smile every time I see them.
I had ordered mine in early January, and the bay seller wrote back to me a few weeks later, and said they were out of stock, offering to let me know when they came in. I was disappointed, but decided to trust them. Indeed, about 3 to 4 weeks later, they wrote back, telling me they were in, so I placed the order, which arrived two weeks later, about two weeks before my Allroad. I popped them in the first weekend.
