Similarities US version Audi V8 and 220V

[Tony Hoffman]

I understand. The glovebox on a 4000Q is also similar to your 200's
then. I actually don't like the endcaps for the V8's, as they tend to
crack/fall down some. However, when new they did look good. Yes, the
V8 glovebox is like one big box when dismounted. The top, bottom,
ffront, back, and sides are all one part. There are two screws on top
holking it in (4mm allen), one on the side, and one or two at the
back.
