Assuming you have the VCP, is the coding pretty simple to do without experience using your included instructions or is it highly recommended to have a shop handle that piece? I can't imagine the actual taillight install is all that difficult so was just a little worried about the coding.

Using VCP is also not terribly hard, especially if you are familiar with diagnostic programs like VCDS. Instructions walk you thru step by step on how to use VCP to upload the proper parameters.

Along with some blackline tails it was time to try a new fitment and Rotiform had something new that fit the build...
Version 2.0
Lighting
Headlights A5, S5, RS5 LED (OEM)
Taillight Package A5, S5, RS5 LED Blackline
Exterior
Rotiform Cast WGR 20" Wheel Sets - 20x10.5" ET45
H&R Trak+ 12mm DR Wheel Spacers
Performance
Brake Pads EBC Yellowstuff
A little wider wheel, no rubbing, perfect fitment with the H&R spacers. The silver matches perfectly with the S5 fender badging and window trims while the black optic items everywhere else tone down the chrome, though the candy red offered on the Rotiform WGR was tempting but maybe not right for the daily driver[>_<] Eurolights are always required, because ain't nobody got time for orange up front. The Blackline taillights I thought might disappear into the see of Daytona Grey, but the red running light looks great and gives the car a new more aggressive appearance from the rear.
More to come in time...

IMHO it's about personal preference and the model/body color combo. I've kept full chrome, even added more chrome with S4 mirror caps, on certain cars like the project Allroad and it looked amazing:
Also done brighter colors with black optic:
And now a medium to darker color with black optic and carbon:
Different strokes for different folks...
Glad to have helped PRGeno and love the enthusiasm!

If you just are referring to the S5 Sportback air leather shift trim, that is very easy to install. The old one pulls up with your finger tips and the new one pops right into place.

Long time no update...
Moved from the standard A5, S5, RS5 e-codes to the RS5 matrix headlights with the black interior accents and dynamic sweeping turn signals. Loving the matrix functionality and matching orange sweeping turn signals between the blackline rear lights and headlights.
A5, S5, RS5 Matrix LED Retrofit Package
Thinking about something new for her but can't decide. Suggestions?
