The part number is on the relay....it's $115. You shouldn't need it.Fairly simple to do.

Default You can modify the relay without destroying it (more)

I modified mine, but instead of removing the pins and filing them down, I just bent them over at 90 degree angles toward the outside of the box and used electrical tape to cover them up. This way, if you ever do want to put it back to stock, all you have to do is undo the soldering on the board and bend the pins back up.

Default It's actually not my site...

The site where I got the mod information belongs to Johnny Bravo (http://e-audi.tripod.com/). I followed his instructions and made a couple minor tweaks which I outlined in the link below.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/forum/m/a4/msgs/349867.phtml">https://www.audiworld.com/forum/m/a4/msgs/349867.phtml</a</li></ul>

You can modify the relay inside without cutting any pins.
