"with used with custom installation where an aftermarket controller is used to command the transmission."
my best guess it will work you just have to customize the housing for it to fit into our consoles.

Currently our shifters are too tall for use under the stock A4 console, you can use a manual console with a boot to hide the mechanism. The problem with our shifter mount is that the mount holes are staggered and will not bolt up directly to the OE shifter mount holes. I am trying to push to change this, but we are trying to get some other high priority projects out first. Keep the interest coming though, as I will show the interest to our marketing office.

Previous owner molded the upper console with bondo on the a4 console in the car I have now, turned out pretty nice also.. Its a B&M pro ratchet.

My question, though, kp, is how you bolt it to the floor. It doesn't mate to the existing pattern. Did you drill-to-fit sheet metal screws, drill and install bolts from bottom or top, have to make a custom bracket, etc, etc?
