Wow... it liked died here over the 4th.....

New topic. As we wait for our cars... what else are you guys buying? Driving shoes, watch any of the common snooty car stuff?

I have/am buying the following.
Car Detailing
-DA Polisher 3"
-DA Polisher 6"
-Griots Car System (polish)
-Chemical Guys Black Light and V7
-Chemical Guys Jet Seal

Something to mount my phone in a non obtrusive but useful way.
Clear Bra
Winter Tires/Rims
Audi Flag for the garage
License plate frames

Not nearly as exciting but I already got an oil filter, magnetic oil pan nut and hubcentric wheel reducers. Obviously very early with all, but I like having things "in stock."

I already have the 'hand me down' winter rims/tires. And of course all my similar Zaino and Griot's tools and products.

The non-obtrusive phone mount is something I'm debating as well. The revised Mk3 cockpit is so nicely uncluttered I'm torn as to adding something.

Nice looking silver license plate holder

Dashcam

Remote roof module

128GB SDXC cards (2) for a base music library

iPhone car mount (not needed if they bring CarPlay to the car -- crossing fingers)

Audi first aid kit as it looks nice and small

Maybe some Audi valve stems

Maybe a car cover

I might see if I can pick up any goodies at the Audi shop in Germany when I pick up my car there


For people looking at minimal phone mounts here's my current iPhone 6+ holder is this:


I'm not sure how well that will work with the new vents with the dials inside in the mk3. For people who are interested there's also a smaller version available:

I guess I should add what I already have besides the phone mount: power inverter, high-amp but small USB charger, portable air compressor & oil

128GB SDs. There may be a limit of files or size of SD with Audi Not sure. Even so if you have say more than 5000 MP3s...... its going to be painful to search on SD.

Where does one get a remote for the roof module.... I WANT THIS!

According to the UK manual the mk3 TT supports up 128GB SDXC cards. On top of that it supports a max of 10K song per device/partition apparently (that includes anything you connect over USB, like a harddrive!).

For the remote roof I'm hoping this product will support it: MODS4CARS - YOUR SPECIALIST IN SmartTOP HIGH-END ELECTRONICS FOR CONVERTIBLE TOP AND REMOTE CONTROLS

They are US based and support the mk2 TT already as well as the A3, so likely they can do the new TT as well. I'll be reaching out to them soon to ask about it.

The nice thing is that it requires no cable splitting or anything. Looks super easy to install. My only wish was that it worked with holding down the lock/unlock keys instead of tapping it 3 times.

you have a copy or link of the UK manual... please share!

Hah, I wish! I've been trying left and right with no luck.

I've just been reading European forums where they mention that this is what's in the manual.

Oh, it also supports FLAC now, which is great. Not that I necessarily can hear the difference (especially with the roof down), but it's just convenience so I don't have to keep my library in both FLAC and MP3.

I want the remote.... I would agree... they have it for old TT and the new A3. I gotta assume the new A3 version is near the same system.

I hate when I find more **** to buy.

Sorry!

I've sent them some questions, I'll let you know what I hear back.
