Review on OE Replacement Rear Bumper Tail Light for Audi Q5 2009-2016 - Right Side by Sean Xayamonty

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Worthy replacement, with issues

I bought replacement left and right lights for my 2015 Audi Q5. These are decent replacement parts with the following minor issues. 1) The protrusions that are inserted into the bumper to mount the lights have the wrong profile. They took a decent amount of looping/shaping to fit the grooves on the bumper. 2) The lamp assembly on the side marker is used for attachment only. Depends on O-ring assembly to seal and stay in place. The assembly of the factors is fixed with a quarter turn fastener. All other lamp assemblies on this lamp are secured with quarter turn knots.3) This lamp is secured in the bumper with a screw assembly in the funnel. The screw heads are smaller and more difficult to turn with Phillips #1 compared to Phillips #2 under original lighting. Also, this screw doesn't pull the headlight all the way to the bumper. The assembly moves when the screw is fully tightened. Need a redesign. I would probably buy again despite the flaws.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Trade-in availability
