It's time for a update on my S8. Unfortunately, I haven't done anything with valve spring job since my last post as I've been dreading on removing the cylinder heads.



I really don't have many interior pictures of my car so I took two pictures not too long ago.







Hopefully what I just purchased not too long ago, will help motivate me to get working on the valve replacement job.
Here is what I purchased to swap into my car, oxblood red interior I do have the arm rests which is not in this picture.



While I was removing the black rear seats, I noticed this bracket is missing the bolts.
What size bolts are these? So I can buy replacements.



I got the rear seat out and

there wasn't a picture for the seat back-rest hooks so here is what it looks like.


It looks like one of the previous owner had a dog ride in the back seat as there is hair everywhere
It took me some time to clean up everything.







What is this red line for?



Here is a picture of the rear seat wires and I noticed one of them is different.


This yellow connector is different from the back-rest to the car's connector. So I can't connect them together.


I don't have this problem with the other side of the car.



I removed the black door cards and I need to know if these are still available?



While I was cleaning up the oxblood door cards, I noticed one of them has a very bad tear in it .
Can this be repaired?


I had to re-glue these foam strips.



Can this part of the leather be fixed? Or do I need to take it to have it professionally repaired?
