Hey, Lee, there's a guy on both Quattroworld and Audiworld Allroad 
forums who calls himself JustMtnB44 (justmtnb44 at verizon.net) who made a 
copy of the European hitch Audi offered for the C5 cars, all fully 
engineered to the same specs.  He's been having them welded together by 
a commercial shop in batches as he's had orders for them.  I'd have one 
of Justin's if I hadn't already purchased a Bosal for my Allroad.

I bought my Bosal in the USofA from EuropaParts:
