[s-cars] Questions about ABS disable switch installation (paging Fred Munro...)

[bob.rossato at att.net]

The ABS Off switch was available on the '92 S4 only, at least in the N. American market.  Not sure about European market.  I don't believe it's a simple plug and play, and would require some rewiring to retrofit.
