Hopefully this will help you out a little bit, even though it will probably
end up bad news. I am guessing that you have the bose system in your audi.
This is a nice sounding system, but having dealt with bose stuff before i
can say they sometimes aren't the most friendly people to try and deal with.
eveything is soo integrated trying to add anything that doesn't say bose is
nearly impossible. If it is a bose I would call a bose rep in your area to
see if there is some sort of din to rca input that you could use(good luck)
if your system isn't the bose system you are probably better off. Find out
who the actual maker of the head unit is (check to see if it's alpine, i
know they did a lot of oem stuff) and if it is your sitting in a better
situtation. just contact about any local alpine dealer and they can get ya
what ya need. I hope this helps.
