Yes this flipped Audi box has been fitted to the back of a bay window.
I guess that on a bay window you can fit the engine up right as per the Audi A4, rather than leaning over as in the transporter 3. |

There are 2 types of flanges used.
The A4/Passat box is narrower than the bus box, so there is room for spacers with the early flanges, or adaptors with the later star shaped flanges. |
