Here's the translated price list for the Audi 5 installation kit
from Axel Winkler, provided mostly so that you can see what's
involved and what the expensive parts are.  Please note that my
translation is amateur and that I have no relationship
whatsoever with Winkler besides having seen his Audi-engined
crewcab one rainy day.  All prices in DeutschMarks.
