Radio retrofit: 1993 Audi 100 (C4 chassis)

It has been awhile since I have posted:

What I am looking for is someone with a LATE C4 to photograph the lower 
console.  In specific, the area where the radio and accessory control switches 
are located.

I want to replace the broken (parts NLA) Gamma radio in my car with the slightly 
newer Delta, or an early Concert head unit with a CD player.  There are some 
closeout refurbs out there for sale.

The Gamma is a standard size, single DIN chassis.  The Delta is a "wide DIN' 
unit.  So is the Concert unit.

It is my understanding that the Delta was the OE radio on the later C4 cars in 
the US.  


In the 1993 100 I own, to the left of the radio you will find the controls for 
the side mirrors.  To the right, you will find the cigar lighter socket.  Where 
are these items on the later C4 cars if they came from the factory with a "wide 
DIN" radio?  Perhaps above the radio where the rear wind. defog, fog light & 
emergency flasher switches reside, along with a coin keeper?  


Please advise and send the photo to me off-line.

PS-I'm not worried too much about modifying some wiring to suit.  After all, the 
Delta lacks the diversity FM receiver the Gamma offers, and so on.  I just want 
a radio that works properly.

Thanks.
