Hello Tony,

I would be interested in pics of the conversion if you would not mind.

I also did a slight mod on my car. I was looking through ETKA and noticed 
some trunk organizers/dividers that the North American cars did not have. My 
parents went to Germany so I asked my Dad to pick up part #  4A5 863 476. 
Will try to get some  installed pics by this weekend, still no digicam for 
me.
Obviously this part will not work on your car if you have the CD changer. 
Pics of just the part in my Audiworld pic poster:

ends of the divider fit right into cut slots in the carpet. Plug and play.
