two questions

1: does anyone know where to get a new stock front lip. its the black plastic trim thats directly below the bumper. mine cracked a little and hangs down a bit so id like to get a new one (i think it got rocked on too many of those cement blocks in front of parking spaces). i know a repair shop can get it but its so easy to put on i dont want to pay their outrageous prices.

2: two of the lights in the dashboard have gone out. the bulb that lights the oil temp gauge went out a little while ago and now one of the lights for tack, just the one near the 1000 rpm marker, seems to be out (there must be multiple lights in the tack cause that bottom left area is only starting to fade). so how would i go about changing those bulbs?

ps...ive got a 96

1 the dealer should have repacment parts for it if not i would check ebay or google it
2. to replace the light buld take out the instument cluster and the bulbs are stick out just pull them out and relace it

thanks for the answers. i knew that the panal would have to come off, but i guess i was wondering how complicated of a process that would be? what steps do i take in order to get to the bulbs?

it was kind of quienceden i had some just laying around how ever like many other parts audi has the bulbs but the vw bulbs i belvev are the same and are cheaper. The ones i used didnt even have a brand name one them but did the job...also some people say youy have to take off your steering wheel to get the instrument cluster out...with some scraces i didn really have to do that

You dont need to take the steering wheel off to get the cluster off, just the steering column cover.

ok...so it seems that the bulbs burning out is like a disease, it just slowly grows taking out one bulb at a time. it started with the oil temp light, started into the lower light-hand side of the tack and now it struck the fuel gauge and the engine temp light. i thank you all that have responded to the thread, but does anyone have a more detailed description of how to get behind the gauges to change the lights? thanks.
