[V8] "93 V8 with key stuck in ignition sw

[Ed Kellock]

To get the key out of the ignition, pull up on the shift level when it is in
park.  It's supposed to pop up by iself when you shift into park but after
many years that doesn't always work.

As for the radio, you can call Stammler Audi in Boulder with the vehicle VIN
and the serial# of the radio and they can provide you the security code.  I
suggest this particluar dealer because many will not do this over the phone,
but I have found that they will.  I try to be real easy going with them just
to ensure future success at doing this.

The bumpers can be glued if they're not too trashed, but you might find used
replacements in the right color if you post a wanted on the Marketplace.

The exhaust is just an exhaust.  Do not bother with factory OEM stuff, just
find a decent muffler shop that can do some custom work.  

Which piece of wood trim in the center console do you need?

Ed
