if I remember correctly....you can get an aftermarket **** for the automatic, what you really need from the kit is the adapter thingie and then buy a flamball....it'll fit with the new "adapter thingie"

For it to work you basically need to buy 2 *****, the flameball for the M6 and then an **** for the A4 from somewhere like Mid America or the like.

But that's how we'll probably have to do it...sounds like you may get the "Bigtoe Hookup" :lol:

Mark is right on the money!

I had switched to the A4 alum shift **** from Xtreme back during the first Cruise-In. So I already had the adapter when I decided to go with the flameball.

Best thing if you want it on an A4 is to contact Xtreme or Exit28 (I think they are the two vendors that carry the A4 ****) and get the A4 **** w/adapter then you can put the flamball or anyother 6 speed **** on that you wish.

On the flameball, in order to get the wire up through the collar that sits between the boot and ****, I notched the inside a little to make room for the wire.
