How to Protect the Audi A3 8Y Virtual Cockpit Plus 12.3” – Complete Guide

The Audi A3 8Y (2020–2024) is equipped with the advanced Virtual Cockpit Plus 12.3”, a digital display that enhances the driving experience. It provides real-time data, navigation, and infotainment features. Because it is used daily, it is vulnerable to fingerprints, glare, and scratches. Protecting it ensures both usability and long-term durability.

Why Choose a Matte Screen Protector

A matte screen protector offers two main advantages: anti-glare and anti-fingerprint. Anti-glare reduces reflections for better visibility in sunlight, while the anti-fingerprint surface helps the display stay clean. Unlike glossy films, matte protectors integrate seamlessly with Audi’s luxury interior.

What to Look for in a Screen Protector

  • Perfect Fit – designed specifically for Audi A3 8Y Virtual Cockpit Plus 12.3”.
  • Dual Protection – combines glare reduction with fingerprint resistance.
  • Easy Installation – bubble-free application with alignment tools.
  • Touch Accuracy – maintains full responsiveness and gesture control.

The Grizz Screen Protector is an excellent example, precision-cut for the 12.3” Virtual Cockpit Plus and built with both anti-glare and anti-fingerprint features.

Installation Process

  1. Work indoors in a clean, dust-free environment.
  2. Clean the screen with the included wipes to remove dust and smudges.
  3. Align the protector using guide stickers before applying.
  4. Peel and apply from the center outward, pressing gently to remove bubbles.
  5. Allow 24–48 hours for micro-bubbles to disappear naturally.
