Default Silver ****....

What's the purpose of the slightly large, slightly bulbous silver **** that's to the left of the opening for the SD, SIM and CD spaces in the B8.5 A5 Cabriolet controls.

Enquiring minds want to know.......

Found out on another forum what it is, a "Steelie" phone mount. Not sure what else is supposed to be in the area that its secured too, seems like a natural place to put a volume ****, but with one one the steering wheel and next to the gear shift, maybe they just left that space blank in 2017 A5 Cabriolets?

Car sold as a CPO so I don't think that they would sell it with an original **** missing, at least w/out telling me that was the case........


Silver **** above the temp **** on the driver's side....

Cool, thanks. Just got the Amazon notification that my magnetic phone attachment to use with the adapter arrived, no idea how well I'll like it but figured it was worth a try.
