Compatible OEM references

OEM numbers identify the third-party parts this item is designed to replace. This is an independent Nexelform product (NXF-015), not a genuine OEM part, and no OEM endorsement is implied.
The upper headlight mount on the 8V A3 breaks in a light front-end knock and Audi supplies it only as part of a new headlight. The repair bracket bolts the lamp back to its original mounting point.
Printed in PETG as standard; ASA is the better choice for an engine-bay-adjacent mount that sees heat soak.
As with any headlight mount repair, the lamp must be re-aimed after fitting.
Validation evidence
Test-fitted on the vehicle listed and confirmed by the owner. No hot-box, load-cycling or UV testing has been carried out, and no dimensional report exists beyond the measured CAD geometry.
Fitting guidance
Cut back the broken mount, clean the housing, dry-fit the bracket to check the screw positions, then fix with M4 machine screws. Have the headlight alignment checked.
Known limitations
Headlight mounting only. Not a structural or impact-bearing part, and it does not restore crash performance.
