[barrygutshot]

Neewbie alert....


Reading the limited info there is out there for dbl din units, is it that easy to swap over?

Can i buy something that can be fitted in the process that will gve me bluetooth as well?

Anything else i should know?

Thanks for any help...

Easy to fit the Audi nav unit, loads of threads on here about it.

Ipod adapter will work OK. You can add the BT phone kit as well.

Are there any pdf guides/step by step intructions anywhere?

You dont need one if you already have double DIN, its old radio out then new nav unit in. Takes 10 minutes at the most.

There are a few guides online somewhere though, Google will show you...

Mate, it really it is that simple, did it myself and that was single din to double. You will need to hide the GPS antenna cable, I just put the antenna in the glove box and slotted the cable around the trim. I think you will have to have all 4 removal keys in at the same time to remove a double din system, not 100% though but I'm sure somebody will correct me...

Thanks guys, will go and order one from ebay today.

While I am taking out the radio is it worth thinking about putting in a bluetooth kit as well?
Whats your recommendation, where can i get it and is it easy to fit?

Seen this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AUDI-RNS-E-BLUETOOTH-HANDSFREE-KIT-A3-A4-A6-TT-/270646031265?pt=UK_CE_GPS_Accessories_Software_ET&hash=item3f03c2b3a1 but it mentions re programming by VAG. is this necessary or can you find the coding needed on the net?

Thanks for you help

It says VAGCOM coding is required, That doesnt mean it has to go to a dealer.

Anyone with VAGCOM equipment can code it, only takes 5 minutes. Plenty of people on here have it. It wont work correctly unless you have it all coded.

That Ebay link will do the job just fine, isnt hard to fit. About an hour's work at the very most.
