Audi 80 Windscreen & Seal Availability?

Sie! · 30-10-15, 02:42 PM

As the title really, does anyone know the current availability of the screens and seals for the B2 Audi 80s?

I'm hoping I won't need either but getting the feelers out just in case!

Brgds,

Simon

I'd like to know as well. I believe that the seals are the same part number as Sport Quattro seals,

but I'd rather have the B2 80 price for them.

The seals for 'ordinary' 80s are different as they have a groove for a trim strip in them ??

Try Lancashire Windscreens for the glass,

I recently bought two screens (one as a spare) for my Coupe, I have a spare rubber.

If they are, then seals for SQ has B2 A80 price, not vice versa, even if they would have SQ, not B2 part number. It's the rarity and economies of scale which makes specific parts of rare models so expensive, not association with them.

Yes I understand what you are saying but it does not always work like that in this country !

We will have to see.
How much did you have to pay Moonwatcher ? ( pm me if you prefer).

umm very reasonable.

That is very interesting, gonna pop an email to the see if they can still source one just in case...

The seal I ideally want is the standard 80/90 one with the chrome strip insert, however if I can get a standard sport/coupe one that's just black then at least that's a start.

I shall report back with if/what I find!

Yes please, I may well need a black rubber. I doubt that a screen will come out without needing a new rubber and probably a new screen !
