But still the fields did not show up. I found out that the new fields 
have to be added to the 'palettes' array in file tca.php of tt_products:

'palettes' => Array ( ....

ONLY when I add my fieldnames here the fields are displayed in the edit 
page in the BE Module. This is a bit unhandy because it means that this 
additions will have to be done manually each time tt_products is 
updated. Is there no better way to extend tt_products?
