The Audi TT light up emblem replaces the factory front grille badge on the TT, TTS, and TTRS with a dynamic illuminated version featuring animated lighting effects that activate every time you lock, unlock, or start the car.
The four-ring Audi logo glows in pure white LED — sharp, clean, and perfectly suited to the TT’s distinctive design character.
This product covers all TT platform generations from 2006 to 2023, including the Mk2 8J and Mk3 8S, across TT Coupe, TT Roadster, TTS, and TTRS variants.
Audi TT Light Up Emblem Key Features

- Two generation options — 1st Generation (2 animation effects) and 2nd Generation (4 animation effects) available. See the generation guide below to choose the right one for your TT.
- Fits TT, TTS, and TTRS — all three variants use the same front grille badge size (252mm) across Mk2 8J and Mk3 8S platforms.
- Chrome OEM-matched finish — chrome-plated surface manufactured to match the factory TT badge exactly. No visible white border or protruding edge when unlit.

Generation Guide — Which Type Do I Choose?
This is the most important selection on this page.
Both generations fit all TT, TTS, and TTRS models listed — the difference is the number of animation effects.
1st Generation — 2 Animation Effects ($139.99):
Two lighting sequences — a lock/unlock animation and a continuous driving illumination mode.
Simpler, cleaner animation style.
Available in Silver and Black chrome.
2nd Generation — 4 Animation Effects ($159.99):
Four lighting sequences — outside-in sweep, up-and-down motion, chain-link effect, and flash on/off.
More dramatic and eye-catching animation style.
Available in Silver and Black chrome.
The most popular choice among TT, TTRS, and TTS owners.
If in doubt, choose the 2nd Generation (4 Animations) for the most impressive visual effect.

Frequently Asked Questions — Audi TT Light Up Emblem
Which generation should I choose — 1st Gen or 2nd Gen? +

The 2nd Generation ($159.99) has 4 animation effects — outside-in sweep, up-and-down motion, chain-link, and flash on/off.
Most buyers choose the 2nd Generation for the more impressive visual effect.
