    Mine looks like this and I think for $10 and with a usage rate of once per 10 years or so, I'm happy to chuck it out after every use. It's imported by Whites Wires (who seem reputable) and has the E in a circle mark on it.
    If that's the one with a code of 14580 it's different to the one that I saw there, JHP says it's pretty good for the price - CALLS FOR IMPROVED ROADSIDE SAFETY : NBN

    And some more info from him - News - Owner//Driver

    Ok, so it seems that we have got it wrong again!
    Part No: 000093055K does not fit in the alcove as it is too high.

    I have now been told the correct Part No: 1Y0093055 is not available to be ordered in Australia, Euro market only.

    So once again my question to all with agons, what Safety Triangle Part Numbers do you have?!

    Hi ope126,
    The triangle in mine has 2 different part numbers: p/n 8D9 860 251 B under audi and vw logos on the main case, and p/n27R03566 under a GEKA logo on the lid of the case.

    Thanks Gazza for your help, much appreciated!!!

    Will see what I come up with, actually sounds like an Audi Part Number.
