I've been working on these for some time on and off, but it became a little more critical a few months ago because the ones made by Audi have become no longer available from the main deal / TPS.
The LH side still appears to be available on ebay at the moment but for how long no one knows, but the RH side is again no longer available even on ebay.
It has been really difficult to model the part in CAD, many days work have gone into these as well as some 15+ test prints followed by a tweak to the CAD model then print again, rinse and repeat until I was happy with the finished results.
The print needs to be done at a low layer height and slow speed due to the intricate design
They are attached to the head light with two small self-tapping screws in the mounts that already exist in the headlight (it’s almost as though the head light design was originally meant to have the mount as a separate part, and then Hella decided to mould the mount as part of the head light back).
I am proposing to offer these for sale to members as I hate to see otherwise good head lights go to landfill because of a broken top mounting. My MOT man picked up on a broken clip on one of my own head lights stating that the head light was loose without the top clip, we super glued it whilst in the MOT bay and it worked (MOT passed) but did not last very long.
If there is sufficient demand I will get a stock of the correct size self-tapping screws and supply the clip with the two self-tappers.
Pictures below of the LH clip the RH is also available
Audi part numbers 8Z0998121L & 8Z0998121R
Price
Single repair piece either LH (near side) or RH (off side) £20
Pair of repair pieces ie one of the LH and RH £35
Delivery at cost estimating £2 but will depend on Royal Mail
