If you're mechanically inclined, this should be fairly straightforward; if
you're not and will have to pay someone to do it for you, then bring money
... LOTS and LOTS of money.  Then be prepared for owning a car that nobody
except another dedicated Coupe-head will ever want to buy and even then it
will be well-nigh impossible to recover more than half of your investment.
(Sounds like it would fun to drive, though!).

Don't feel bad ... a quick look at the schematic for any Audi built during
the past 15 years will show that even THEY are sometimes ignorant of their
inner workings!    ;^)
