Broken into Audi on Thanks Giving Morn

I just got done calling to about 5 local salvage yards, no luck in
getting the window.  Either they don't understand how an interchange
manual works, or the Audi's of this erra just weren't that common in the
MN area.
  I found a few listed on car-parts.  Looks like I will have to park the
Audi for a week or so till one of the online yards, can next day my
window.
  All I have to say, at least this vehicle still starts, the last car I
had that was broken into they were nice enough to ground an unfused link
to the battery, and managed to fry my Starter and starter relay (old
ford), and battery.

Does anyone know what years the drivers side windows interchange?  The
yards seem a little confused.

Thanks,

Yup, I've had two attempted break-ins and one succesful. Believe me, the
type 89 door handles are no advantage here! The jerk put a screwdriver
in
my driver's door lock and just levered until the door handle (cast iron)
broke and the door skin warped to h*ll.

Fist time- 600 euros damage. Second- 400. Third- 700. Plus 10 euros for
the
actual loot: three copied CDs and a cellphone charger. Fixed the damage
myself and learnt that whatever it is, however worthless it is to you,
some
drug-crazed git will nick it. Now my CDs lare covered with road maps,
I'm
even more conscious to leave the glove compartment open and leave
nothing
of value in the car.

Sorry to hear about the break-in, I sympathize. Sounds like your git did
even more damage than mine.
