will this fit my car??2005 lcr. the one for the a3 20v turbo <2003 http://www.strutbracer.co.uk/tables/audi.htm#A3
This one for the Audi S3 Mk1 definitely fits:
Part No: 8L9805629a
and is available for about £58.
Plus its a genuine VAG part, so can be supplied from any Audi dealer.
I thought the LCR already came with a factory fitted upper strut brace, is that right ??
So the Audi S3 Upper strut brace will fit the LCR part number is 8L9-805-629-A. but is it required, when I look at my engine bay, there is a black bar running from one strut to the other ??? whats that then, sorry to sound thick, but I am not technically minded on the LCR, just own one and thats it.
Audi dealer said strut brace 8L9-805-629-A, is £16.87 + vat & bolts £1.09 each + vat.
Can anyone tell me if it will require drilling on the suspension mount?
One thing I have learnt from past experience, most Dealers have different prices for the same part.
The price I have been quoted was face to face over the counter at Audi Dealership in Bradford, West Yorkshire, I quoted part no. 8L9805629A, they refer to it as body re-inforcement, same thing just different name from a strut brace. Don't be paying £58, your getting ripped off mate, move to Bradford, we also have some of the best Indian Restaurants aswell.
Go for it, do not delay, they may go out of stock, be quick, i already bought mine a few days ago, it looks the dogs do da's. just need to find someone to fit it to my 260bhp LCR, so I can turn those country roads into my own Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit.
