Well, they obviously _did_ put them into Coupe GTs - it says so on my
parts fiche.  Why haven't I seen one?  Well, I'm not in Club Audi (the
non-urq club) and I don't make a habit of peering into cars on the
street - such actions can be misunderstood.

Yes, the ur-quattros got them, both in green (at first, with a
mechanical odometer, from 85-D-900772) and orange (later, fully
electronic, from October 1987 onwards).
