Center Console Grille Upper Mount / Cockpit and Center Speaker Mounting Frame – 4K1035428A

Original upper mounting bracket / support frame for the center console grille and upper windshield area (mounting frame for the center speaker cover / upper dashboard air vent grille), designed for Audi A7 Sportback, S7 and RS7 (4K / 4K8 generation) and Audi A6 C8 (type 4K2 / 4K5 / 4KA) models produced from 2018 to 2026, including versions with 3.0 V6 TFSI (55 TFSI), 2.0 TFSI, TDI engines, and top-tier S and RS models based on the modular MLBevo longitudinal platform.

Original VAG group interior load-bearing mounting component. Made of hardened technical plastic with enhanced thermal stability, resistant to heating from sunlight in the upper windshield area and cockpit vibrations during driving. Mounted in the central upper section of the dashboard. It ensures the precise positioning and snapping into place of the center speaker cover (Audi Sound System / Bang & Olufsen) or upper air vent grille, stabilizes cockpit trim elements, and eliminates stress, mounting play, and unwanted rattles from the upper windshield area on uneven roads.

Fitment guarantee and VIN verification

Each frame undergoes a detailed inspection of the load-bearing edge geometry, snap-fit socket check, and thorough cleaning before shipping.

Fitment / installation note: The initial 4K1 designation (group 035 / audio and cockpit accessories) confirms its dedication to MLBevo platform models with left-hand drive (LHD). This component is essential for assembling the dashboard after airbag deployment, cockpit replacement, or equipping the vehicle with the Bang & Olufsen 3D sound system. The original OEM frame guarantees perfect alignment of the upper grille with the dashboard surface without uneven gaps. Before purchase, we recommend comparing the OE number on the part's label or embossed marking, or verifying it using the vehicle's VIN.
