To the best of my knowledge, this is not a simple procedure. You need to buy a roof mount euro style antenna (I have seen them for sale, just can remember where), drill the proper holes in the roof, run the wire from the existing antenna, mount the new one, and conceat the holes left by the old one.

By moving the antenna, you are probably making a good posibility for a future water leak, so be careful.

You can buy a euro-style antenna, or go to the dealer and get the antenna and associated wire to hook one up like the P5, the cars are simular enough that you could retrofit that part as if the factory made a mistake and installed a P5 antenna on your Pro(assuming you have a 3rd Gen!)

If you want an Audi TT atenna, you could go to the audio dealer and get it there.

but i would guess it would cost quit a bit too.

Fuba makes roof mount antenna's like the factory style on the P5.

I installed a couple of them, your hardest part may be re-routing the antenna. Make sure to touch-up any holes you drill with paint.
