I have a 2002 Audi A4 Concert with Bose

Want to install a Symphony 11

Is it plug and play..?

Are the Double Din Adaptors for RNS-E available on ebay suitable for this ?

If not which Double Din adaptor do i need ?

Yes the Symphony will plug & play, once you've done the double din conversion of course! The one on ebay is the right one, they're normally always on there as in demand! I just bought an audi original one a couple of weeks ago from vagparts that I no longer need as now going to sell the car! Was going to ebay it but your more than welcome to buy it, cost me £28+VAT+P&P from them so happy to sell on for £35 delivered to a forum member and just recoup what I paid!

Thanks for the offer but just found out that i will need to trim the aircon unit to fit as the angle narrows as it goes lower !

Will have to find out if this is feasable or if i will have to source a unit compatible with the Symphony

So hold fire until i get this sorted ;)

Cutting the aircon unit is easy.
Measure 2mm in from each side at the top and 5mm in from each side at the bottom. Mark the lines and cut.
I used a junior hachsaw.

Can you get a clean cut with this method....?

It is only plastic that you are cutting through.
It will only take 5 mins.
Trust me Im a vicar!!!;)

if you check out the link, there is a guide in the "internal options" section that details the installation of the dvd based satnat (rns-e) system. this guide contains comprehensive instructions and pictures of how to convert from a single DIN to double DIN centre console.

have fun :)
