The 924 has a lot of VW parts in the dashboard. The switches are all Golf 1, the
heater controls are Golf 1, ign. lock etc, and as you know the rear axle is
type1/3 IRS. It's pretty amazing. The car was supposedly going on the market as
an VW/Porsche 914 replacement but the big honchos at VW backed out of the
cooperation with Porsche so far into the development that it "had" to go into
production anyway. VW held the responsibility of this part, and let the car be
built at the Audi factory in Neckarsulm.
