George,
	I just picked up an A4q last week. Before I traded my GTIVR6 I removed the
Passat cupholder I had installed. It fits perfectly in the A4. The color
and texture does not match exactly, but it can be placed to be out of site
from the drivers seat. This is a tremendous improvement from the stock
cupholder. I am quite sure that these will fit in any car with about an 8"
level piece of center console edge.
