Thank you, i installed my cupholder regarding to that video, helped so much. Thank you!

[@fraysa]

Hey Tim, Thanks for the video - but why aren't you following genuine methods when retrofitting these projects? The LED cupholder lights originally go into BCM pin #4 if i'm not mistaken so you can control them through the MMI. Not so much work to be honest - better than cutting the 12v lighter wires.

Yes I am aware of this but I found this out after I used this method... Please like and subscribe! Hit the notification button so you don’t miss out on the new videos! TW

Hello, my PRNDS lights next to the shift knob arent lighting up on my 2015 audi a3. Do you think thats a bulb being out or does it have something to do with the wiring. Im not tech savy so i dont wanna mess with it lol. Would really appreciate it if you can reply back 🙏🏼

[@jurajpisarcik1675]

Hello there..I already got my car with this led cup holder from factory. I’m just wondering if I switch these cables it change color to red? Is that 100% true or I can expect to destroy it? :D

[@dinoramic9962]

Is that aftermarket ring or original from Audi? How can you change color when you switch the cable??

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Original ring mate...I heard if you reverse the cables it changes the colour :) Please like and subscribe! Hit the notification button so you don’t miss out on the new videos! TW

HI, Is there any way to remove just the aluminium/metal trim around the shifter and MMI controls? It got scratched and was thinking of a paint job. Thanks!

[@TimWilliamsHD]

I cannot recall unfortunately, mine has a slight tear that isn't noticeable but I haven't checked to see if it can be purchased separately. I doubt it tbh. Thanks for watching! Please like and subscribe! TW

[@provids4k647]

Great video, but I dont want to disassemble whole console for this.

Quality video Where can I get the 2 cables that connect to the cig lighter and then connect to the lights ring?

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Hi brother, got it all from TPS... give them a ring and collect it .. just tell them what you need and they'll get parts sorted... Thanks for watching, please like subscribe! TW

[@hdkatarina]

This way we can no longer use the lighter for usb?

[@Audi-gu9dw]

Quick question. For part# 000979009E it lists as rear fog light trigger wire. Or they have 00097900EA that lists as connector repair wire, yellow. They look similar, just want to make sure I get the correct one. Can you please advise. I greatly appreciate it. Thanks G

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Hi mate, It’s definitely a repair wire. Good luck! Please like and subscribe! Hit the notification button so you don’t miss out on the new videos! God bless TW

[@gaedicke1]

Hi TW I went to my local Audi dealer today to get the parts. They told me that there is a risk of getting several warnings, if i get the power to the LED cupholder, from the lighter. Did you get any warnings after install? thanks mate

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Hi Lars, no warnings after install at all,my parts were genuine too so not sure why dealer said there could be any errors really... thanks watching please like and subscribe TW

[@patrickerlacher5483]

do you got a link for the led rings?

[@aurelien00sutter]

Hello, I have a lot of error, my mmi doesn't work, a simple reset VCDS enough ?

[@TimWilliamsHD]

simple reset should work..I cant recall but 3 buttons should be pressed to reset the MMI.... if not you may have pulled a plug out that I don't know about..Thanks for watching! Please like and subscribe! TW

Tim Williams Thanks dude!:)

[@ThrethsTiago]

Amazing video mate! i already bougth this led cup holder and ill do installing tomorrow with my local master. Question: no warnings at all so far? You did like plu n play...thx!

[@TimWilliamsHD]

no warnings whatsoever just ensure you follow as I did and you'll be fine! Thanks for watching, please like and subscribe :) TW

[@ThrethsTiago]

TW Randomz I did it! So far so good. No warnings and I plugged wire position in white led. However, I really think the lights came with some "black points"...I mean...it is not pure with Led as I see in the A3 built in cup holders. Unfortunately, KZbin does not allow pictures.

[@gaedicke1]

No need to reset anything in VCDS?.... Just plug and play?.... Thanks for the video.

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Thanks for watching! Plug and play mate! You can wire it into the cars harness which is how it's done properly so you can adjust the brightness on the mmi or with the light knob near headlights but I went for the easy method. Thanks for watching! Please like and subscribe! TW

[@gaedicke1]

thanks for answering. The way you did it, connecting to the cigaretlighter. Is it then possible to adjust the brightness, with the light knob?

[@aukedepeuter2642]
