It's for adapting any shifter handle to the A4. The difference between the
corvette C5 adaptor and the F body one is the length of the adaptor.
If you buy a ball with a 'tail' it will cover the F body adaptor.

I'd like to know that too, I doubt it though. I also hate the button top ****, I may have to swap it for a T-handle like my 92 T/A even if it looks a little out of place.

If you got an auto it's not a big deal. Try having a black 6 speed car with a black **** and T tops. OUCH!!! I'm suprised I don't have SS burned into my palm!
