Thanks QList! (or) New taillight cluster for my A4
I was out of town last week and left my car at the airport lot
- Washington National/Ronnie Reagan's Aerodrone (sic) - only to
have some bugger bust the passenger taillight cluster on my '97
A4 probably with a luggage cart. These being the same lights
previously swapped with Igor's 98's as reported a few weeks back.
Unfortunately I didn't notice until I got home - so I couldn't
prove anything at the airport. So, this week I called a couple
of places recommended in these pages. Namely 'Clair' and Linda
at 'Carlsen', for a replacement.
Let me tell you now (if you didn't already know), that that Linda
is one PEACHY lady! I know her praises have been sung before,
but she deserves it even more for her ... well just plain
niceness! (Plus her price was about 20% less than Clair's!)
Anyway, turns out that the cluster costs $90 which, though
expensive for some molded plastic, is a lot cheaper than I was
expecting. So you guys (Chris, are you listening?) who want
to change out your '98 taillights for '96/97's or vice versa,
it's not totally unreasonable to buy a new set if you're that
bitten.
