Hi Clarke,

I believe A/C was standard as these were deluxe cars with all options.  Of 
course there were exceptions to every rule as not all urquattros came with 
sun roofs or rear wipers.  The reason there was no A/C switch was that the 
urq's used the A/C climate panel off the cheap 4000 (80) cars.  The A/C 
switch was integrated into the temperature lever.  Slide it all the way to 
the left and that switched on the A/C compressor relay as well as 
mechanically operating the A/C recirculating flap in the air intake 
duct.  Interesting, the standard coupe GT's did use an A/C switch which I'm 
using in my urq.  This panel is also different in that it has the extended 
lower lip that the regular 4000 heater control panels did not come with.

HTH,
Tony
