Hi there,
Collected a 2001 1.4 Tdi yesterday and one of the first things I hope to be doing is replacing the audio kit in this car with something half decent!
The head unit (single din, concert 2) is beyond knackered and the drivers speaker is also very much on its last legs.
I'm just trying to confirm what bits I'll need for fitting an aftermarket head unit, (I've got loads of kit knocking around).
This car does have rear speakers, so assuming I use a h/u with RCA outs, am I right in thinking this has all the connections I need for the current speaker setup?
I'm also not sure if I need these fascia/trim parts, (is the Audi unit wider than standard single din)?
And these fascia adaptor parts keep coming up - are they to mount the replacement h/u cage or something? Do I need these?
My other question is regarding the door speakers - the fronts (at least) will be changed for aftermarket units.
Has anyone tried either of these fitting/adaptor rings?
There appear to be two different options, (if ebay can be believed) - do all A2's have the same shape/fitment speakers? Any idea which of these I'm likely to need?
Apologies for the long post, I'd just rather have all the bits I need to hand before I start dismantling the car!!!
Thanks in advance,
Rob.
