RE: abs in a 4k?

Britton,

I was wondering, in the illustration you are commenting on does the 'button'
for ABS had a label, ie ABS lite up in red, or does the ABS 'light' come on
via the console somewhere?

		I have also thought of this for my car.  Not only because I
know that ABS can 
		be helpful in certain situations but also because one day
visiting my local 
		Audi dealer trying to maintain the integrity of my Audi I
was looking at a 
		dashboard illustration and I found something very
interesting.  Not only did 
		I find OEM front fog light switches trip computer switches
and all that good 
		stuff but right down next to the Heated Seat switch I found
another switch in 
		the top little square hole.  Behold it was an ABS on/off
switch.  So now that 
		the factory shoes this part being available it makes me
wonder what is there 
		stopping us from putting ABS in our cars.  Maybe not from a
type 44 but maybe 
		from a closer brother or sister say an Audi 90 Quattro?  The
way I see it is 
		if there is a space for it on the dashboard I bet there is a
space for it in 
		the engine compartment and a space for it at the wheels
already to not have 
		done this would be more expensive to make each car for Audi
and how many car 
		companies do you know that like to make producing cars more
expensive? Not 
		many.

the 4000?
