The A4 cluster fits just onto the front edge of the dashboard and in fornt
of the reservoir.

I first had the A4, now the white-scaled A6 cluster in my Vanagon.

Pictures (now with another cover, but no photos of it yet):

The two screwholes on the lower edge of the cluster now fit right behind the
grey upholstery after cutting away the sheet metal behind it.



Oh, by the way: Any germans or importers here (David?) that want to get my
whole Audi V6 30V conversion? I think I will upgrade to the 132kw V6 Tdi
(with tiptronic) and need to get some funds back from my "old" engine.

Kits includes: engine 2.8 (47.000km) and all necessery parts to get it
running, transmission adapter, transmission, exhaust system, A4 cluster,
immo system, all my papers, , harnesses, manuals and other info (quite a
complete map) etc etc.
