Thank you
Thank you
Thank you

My passenger side recently went ka-boink.  I can only assume the 
driver's side has been replaced because I cannot foresee the passenger's 
wearing out first.  I'm going to have to take all 4 door skins off to 
rewire all of the windows and was planning on doing the locks while I 
was in there (even the driver's side), but did not know where to start 
looking for part numbers.

Beautiful weather tomorrow means pulling the dash pad and testing 
resistance at the cruise control module to see why the cruise doesn't 
work.  I wouldn't mind not having cruise (the P-car didn't) but having 
my foot on the gas pedal all the time means that the speedo finds itself 
in dangerous territory. ;)

Glad to be back talking about Audi's again....................
