Illuminated Tread Plates Coupe Vs 5 door? - gabhishekanand - 16-05-2013 04:28pm
Hello All,
Just out of curiosity I went to the local dealer and ask about illumintated tread plates that fit my 5 door Evoque. He pulled up some stats where the 2 door tread plates were cheaper than the 5 door ones. Dont the coupe one's fit on the 5 door? I was trying to do a dimensions search online with no luck. Could anyone of you advise whether they are the same or different?
Thank You.

The ones for the coupe are longer.

Would the connecting points be non-aligned if tried to fit on the 5 door? So absolutely not possible.

Yes, the fixings would be out. You could always superglue them down

You have to remember that the Coupe door aperture is larger than the 5 door which is why the tread plates are bigger.
They are not interchangeable.

Also for the 5 door I think you get 4 thread plates don't you?

I thought the same, but that was not the case. The dealer confirmed that its just for the front door. So its 2 plates, which are smaller at a bigger price.
