Yup.  Change is at start of MY 1988 with the MB.  There is no forward
or reverse compatibility - harnesses, power supplies, etc., all
different.

Green (WR) dashboard availability is now a SERIOUS problem.  We have
three ur-quattros off the road in the UK waiting for dashboards and
it seems even Audi can't help.  We're actively canvassing repair
facilities.
