Default is it possible to switch the language on our cluster screen to German?

I searched around and I know I've seen this before (maybe it was for my BMW) but does anyone know if its possible to switch the language of our center cluster LCD screen to german without replacing the whole thing? If so how? I just figured it would look pretty cool, and add a nice little touch to the car. There's got to be a way to get into the settings and change it, kinda like all the hidden symphony radio things. The car I'd be trying this on is my 2001 A4 2.8Q. Thanks, Nick
