[urq] "Quattro" & "Audi" Decal Locations

[Louis-Alain Richard]

Bob, 

The euro trims (855 853 489/490) are shorter because they don't have lamps :
the ribbed section length look the same. So decal placement should be the
same for all markets. According to ETKA (8, 53, 82-00, item 26), there is a
specific trim part (855 853 489A/490A) for North America and Swiss and
Austria (because they had a US-sized license plate IIRW). 

Anyone with an Euro setup on the trunk lid can measure the length of the
ribbed section ? For the USA/Canada part, the length of that section is 332
mm top and 321 mm bottom. The lamp boss is 50 mm wide.
