Default How to replace Parktronic Buzzer/Speaker?

The buzzer in my A6 died a few days ago. It worked fine one day, then sounded like a staticy mess, and then hours later wouldn't make any noise at all. I see that it's a very cheap part to purchase, but how do you go about replacing it?

Default Same thing here about a year ago....

I do have the Bentley CD - and I looked this up - all answers so far are correct (I am at work so I cant confirm):

You DO have to take the C-Pillar trim and the little buzzer is located on the rear-seatbelt roller / guide part. It is bolted to that. If memory serves - it is on the drivers side. Thinking back on the article - it involves taking hte headliner trim off - then C-pillar. Not sure tho.

Hope that helps

Mine completely died today after several months of sounding staticy. I guess I will have to visit the dealer again.
