Default Advise please. I need a RR door for my S4 & found....

a 1999 A4 door with the same paint code at the bone yard. Will all of the insides be the same? I understand the door panel will be different and can deal with that. What about the door handle on the outside?

Thanks for any input

should be the same, but I am not aware of any A4 paint that was used on the S4.

I may be wrong, but I believe the '99's had a different style door handle (they were more squarish).

Default Huh? How about Santorin Blue, Laser Red, Silver, Black....

...Cactus Green, Pearl White, Casablanca White, Hibiscus Red, etc.

The only S4-specific colors are Imola Yellow and Nogaro Blue.

Default The '99 has the old-style handle. '99.5 & up has what you need. (more)...

If the paint code matches, the color will match. I would think that if it's a '99, it wouldn't have the same code as your 'S', as the '99 & earlier cars had a more bluish-silver than the '99.5 & up cars. So if it's a '99.5, get it. Swap out the door panels & lower trims & you should be good to go. Have fun hanging it - load up the edges w/ masking tape & be careful.
