Purpose and function of the bracket

The presented bracket is designed for the correct attachment of the floor mat on the right side in the Audi A3 8P model. It is responsible for a stable connection between the mat and the floor, reducing the risk of it curling up, which is important for both comfort and vehicle safety.

Thanks to its precise fit to the factory mounting system in the Audi, the component allows for maintaining the consistency of the interior finish and facilitates the daily use of textile or rubber floor mats.

The bracket has a design adapted to the factory mounting points in the floor, which allows for installation without modifications or additional adapters. The black color is visually neutral and blends well with the typical upholstery shades used in the Audi A3 8P, making the component discreet while fulfilling its functional role.

As a part from the group of original Audi solutions, the bracket maintains the correct geometry and rigidity, which translates into holding the mat securely in one position even during frequent entering and exiting of the vehicle.
