Replacing broken sun visor clip

[MasterKey]

Today the passenger side visor clip on my 60 plate Exeo ST snapped - the little hook is no longer attached. From a thread on the Leon Mk1 forum (sorry, still can't post links yet - thread # 278387), and various Audi A4 forums, it looks like replacing it is fairly easy, so I don't see the point in paying a dealer a large sum of money However - does anybody know what part I need? I'm looking for it in grey.

Thanks

On a 60 plate it will be still under warranty as long as your mileage is below 60k. Get down to the stealers and tell them that it just fell off.

That's good to hear - I'll give them a bell tomorrow.

Thanks

In case you or somebody else here needs the (Audi) part numbers:

Sun visor clip, silver: 8E0857562A1YE
Sun visor clip, torrone (beige): 8E0857562A8X5

Think the price for one clip is appr. GBP 6,-

When mine broke I agreed to pay the small cost of the part if the dealer fitted it, it's not clear how the broken part comes out and I didn't want to damage the roof lining. I was told only the manufacturers 1st year warranty covers interior trim, the 2nd/3rd year UK dealer warranty doesn't (??).

It arrived as a pair, as these seem to break often worth asking to keep the 2nd one so you can fit it yourself if another one breaks. Looks like a push fit to me.

Seems to be a recurring problem. My '09 143 Sport had a broken clip on the driver's side visor when I test drove it. I asked for it to be fixed before sale (Nov 2011) and it was, presumably under warranty.

My drivers side one went - about to order the part but anyone got an idea of how to remove the old one?

The plastic casing pries off with a trim removal tool or screwdriver, the hook piece is fixed into two holes in the roof with plastic lugs and should just require a tug to come free.
