Just fitted them. Took literally a minute or two to fit and adjust.

Just fitted mine, took a little longer to arrive in the UK for me. Thanks for the aliexpress heads up steamship (PS they are £6.99 now!)

Did anyone adjust theirs? I asuume you turn the small flatblade screw in the hole next to the nozzle - I might try them a bit higher.

While I was waiting for them, I bought 2x 4F0955431 adapters which were €1,43 each from https://www.online-teile.com/audi-er...6251258051f1b9
(I was already ordering a load of engine parts so postage was already paid)
I can really recommend them instead of TPS you can get the part numbers from http://www.realoem.me/Audi/RDW/A8/2006/291/R and search on their site for the part and price. Alternatively, it also gives you an idea of how much something wil be before vising TPS/dealership.
