Thanks
I think you'll either have to pay the price from Audi (like I did a while ago) or be very patient and dilligent in scanning the 'breaking' ads on ebay.

But once you have them on, invest a few pennies on a couple of long black cable ties. They can be easily attached without drilling and give a degree of security against loss and theft.
