[urq] The Family Album in PDFs...

I've created PDFs of all the ETKA screens for my car, that is a 1983
Quattro. 165 files in total, weighting 5160 Kb compressed. 

For those without access to ETKA, these files are the exact drawings and
parts listings that your dealer uses to help you buy goodies for your car.
There is also many interesting infos, like bolt sizes, trim colors, VIN
cut-off, etc.

For my part, I printed some and I keep them in my toolbox to remind me what
I need to do soon, what I need to find, etc. I usually bring the print-outs
with me when I go to my parts store, OEM or not. 

So if anybody wants the files, providing your car is a WX 1982-1987, I can
arrange an email distribution of the files in 6 small emails of less than
1Mb.

Or, if a good Samaritan wants to hosts them, then it would only take a good
index, and voila!, an interactive Family Album that everyone of us could use
to ask/answer questions.

Note: the files names are the actual screen numbers:
maingroup_subgroup_screen-number.pdf.
Main Group are listed in the index.txt file. 

And, if I'm still in a good mood, I will do the same with the Euro-ETKA so
everyone could drool about KW or RR engines, 9-inch Ronals and
Torsen-urQuattro. Uhhh, forget about that last one...:-)


So, just reply to this email without changing the subject, clean your inbox
for space and I will send you 6 emails in the coming days. Let's say I will
send 2 by day, beginning Wednesday or Tuesday night.  

Disclaimer: I do this only to help fellow listers keep their car in good
running order. I have no financial interest, yada, yada,...

Cheers,

Louis-Alain
