Hardly worth $250 then... LOL

I recall having like that on a ?2003? A4 Avant, and I never used it. Could not find anything worthwhile to put in it.

I have them in my RS4 also and I have a flashlight, tire pressure gauge, hand sanitizer (for the misses) a small roll of duct tape and a sunglasses cleaning kit in the 2 storage drawers. I'm not sure if they are worth $250, but I was disappointed that they weren't in the SQ...I might put em in someday. While the storage isn't massive, I have found it useful while also being completely out of the way and discrete.

Where did you get the 250 from? They're $76 each.

MP4.2+6.0 stated, "I got them from AudiUSAParts (Sunset Audi in Portland), one of the web based Audi parts dealers. A little over $250 for both boxes, hardware bits, etc."


I did not price them myself. Purely what the original poster stated...

Yes! ECS was top notch. Their pricing was the best I could find, though I was hoping for a free shipping code over Black Friday/Cyber Monday, which didn't happen. To their defense, I ordered it on a Thusday morning and it arrived the next day so I can't be too upset about the shipping. Now the only issue, as the OP mentioned, is the tight fitment...as I'm not looking forward to unbolting the seat rails but I'm sure it won't be bad once I start it.

Appreciate the feed back! Thanks for the order!
