OVERVIEW
Genuine short screw for the original exterior molding
The N-910-898-01 Genuine VW/Audi screw secures the assigned exterior molding attachment on the configurations below. Its short 4.2×8 factory specification is important where the original trim and receiving feature provide limited engagement space.
Exterior trim uses several similar screws with different lengths. This individual panel screw belongs only at the original location assigned this complete number. It does not include the molding, corner trim, grille or a complete attachment kit.
Technical details
- Complete factory number: N-910-898-01.
- Factory specification: 4.2 × 8.
- Design: short internal-drive panel screw with a broad bearing head.
- Quantity supplied: one individual screw.
Correct length and head contact help preserve the original trim mounting arrangement. A longer screw can have a different application even when its nominal diameter matches. Confirm the part number and original receiver before fitting replacement hardware.
Common reasons to replace
- The original trim screw is missing after service.
- The drive recess is damaged.
- The threads no longer retain correctly.
- The head or bearing surface is distorted.
- A previous repair installed a screw with the wrong length.
Inspect the molding tab, receiving insert and surrounding finish before installation. A new screw cannot repair a cracked trim tab or stripped receiver. Replace damaged attachment components as required.
Vehicle fitment
Use at the original molding attachment assigned N91089801. Observe the Avant production-date restriction; the earlier longer screw is a separate factory item.

Installation guidance
Follow the factory trim access procedure. Protect the finish, align the original mounting tab and receiver and start the correct screw without cross-threading. Tighten to the specified attachment procedure without crushing the trim.
