Homelink on S3 (picture of port installed option)

Complaining about implementation doesn't seem appropriate in my opinion, Audi did not see it coming in terms of customer demand for this option promise that much... They were forced to quickly engineer a solution I'm sure of it.
Complaining about location sounds petty to me. Just sayin'

Can someone recommend a nice, small homelink alternative for those who can't have it installed? As petty as it sounds, I will probably forego the A3 if I can't have homelink. I have two gates and one garage that I have to program. I will not carry around 3 remotes with me in the car.

I presume he means asking his dealer to install it after it's already been delivered. I'm somewhat interested in that option, but I'd rather someone finds a source for the homelink part (button assembly) and does a FAQ write-up for installation

Yes, exactly. My dealer (maybe all of them are) is a bit skittish about installing options that are not available when ordering. I'd like it to be under warranty AND like installation to not risk my warranty.

I'm sure the latter only requires that you have the Driver Assistance package.

I was just at the dealer yesterday for my 5k service and was talking to my service advisor about it. It's definitely port added but not an option yet (at least at my dealership) as they haven't received instructions from Audi about how to add/install it. I'm going to keep checking though as it looks like it will likely be able to be added sooner or later.
