[s-cars] S6A Rear Bumper HITCH???

[Jack Walker]

DALAN/DELAN is no longer in business, another company purchased them and is
not making any of the Audi products. They still had some of the products in
their inventory, but wouldn't sell it to me unless I was a dealer. I tried
to purchase them through my wife's trailer business but they didn't seem to
be able to, or want to deal with my wife's company, so I dropped it.

The company, which I still can't remember the name of, isn't Dalan/Delan.
The Delan attached to the rear and the bottom of the spare tire well. In
looking at the new one, I really like how it attaches to the rails. 

The roof rails one of the attachment points to the roof is loose, probably
because I overload the darn thing with 8-10 pairs of skis in the box,
Lasers, and multiple 4x4s. Need to take out the headliner to tighten up the
attachment to the roof as I see it?

IIRC the company was DaLan not DeLan.  Dunno if that'd make much 
difference to Google.
