The tiny plugs (2 at front, 2 at rear) that fit into hollow rubber beads surrounding hood and hatch on S4/GTS.

Mine carefully stored away when I got the car, replaced with generic pieces in case I actually need to use them. The belts are "updated" with the used takeoffs at every other timing belt service. The inside of the spare wheel is a treasure trove of might-need-em's, but all the factory original pieces are preserved.

One thing I do need to find is a new clear plastic shield for the fuse and relay diagrams, the one that's part of the CE panel lid. Is that a service part, or do I need to re-create one?

Thosee fuse and relay diagrams often seem to grow legs too. What would cause someone to pull them out and not put them back?

My plastic was empty too. The fuse/relay diagrams were in the portfolio with the other goodies.

Jump post cap as well as black plastic cover that goes over 14 pin connector. The missing sticker is the A/C charge sticker that tells you how much r12 the system takes. Roger at 928srus.com has everything.

Where are those in the PET? I've paged through the 396 pages of it 3X and still can't find them.

**EDIT** - Part #s found here. Referenced as cover ignition switch unit in PET

Is this on all models?

My GTS has the fuse/relay diagram fixed to the wooden CE panel.

A few trivial things I've replaced for completeness:

And the seat belt clips:

And the plastic locator fingers for the later CE panel broken - NLA. I used a similar Ford one (broken original on the left and alternative one on the right):

And Malcolm, the relay/fuse card stapled directly on is shown on this CE panel from my '90, whereas my '88 has the clear plastic sleeve.

I can't speak to all since I've only been that deep into a couple cars. On mine, there's a formerly-clear plastic cover attached on three edges to the CE panel cover. The fuse/relay chart slips into that. In the original fitment, the opening is at the top; That would make perfect sens except the CE cover panel hinges at the top, so getting the fuse and relay diagram out the first time apparently required tearing the right side of the plastic cover. I'll post pics next time I'm near the car.

Default Fuse Puller

Adding to the "often missing" list, the fuse puller that normally lives in a recss in the CE panel. Why anyone would remove these is beyond me. Be sure to get the right one for your year if you crave originality.

Plastic gloves to remove a wheel and replace a spare without getting your hands dirty, and a bag to put the removed wheel that is too large to fit where the spare came from so must sit on the carpet without dirtying it. Not something that is likely ever used...
