Technical Background

On R8 Spyders with sport seats and fully

electric seats, the seats can be adjusted

to positions that allow for mechanical

interference between the seat backrest

panels and the rear panel trim panel

and/or windscreen during normal

damaged trim panels and/or windscreen

(Figure 1).
