Default Radio question

Is it possible, if I have the Concert radio to put in a Symphony one? I know mine is Single Din and the other one is Double Din, but what would be required for me to do this? I am asking this becuase I want to install a Navigation system.

I Dont know how helpful this will be. But A friend of mine did this on hos 2000 A4 1.8T I believe it was a direct swap. Just make sure it is the right dash config

just make sure that the unit you are using is the proper dimensions. You might have to relocate the heating controls above the unit.

if you have a single din radio you need to replace both the radio cage and possibly the heater control, the radio cages sell for about £150 plus the heater control,

the heater control stays in the same position but i beliveve the replacement is smaller.

you can find these parts on VAG parts, or on ebay - if you search on the german site they seem to have more - ebay.de search for 'doppel din a6' it brings them up!

there seems to be a few products on ebay.de, matt_o121 can these parts be purchased directly from audi? i also have a single din concert radio wanting to upgrade to the nav plus, however my interior is brown.
if i could get it from audi that would be great.

Cheers

you will be able to buy from a dealer, however i am sure the price will be a shock!

the part on vagparts is £156.

the interior coulour will not matter, because the radio cage is not a visable part of the dashboard!

have a look at ebay.de item :220049313779

this is the frame for the radio, the other trim panels attach to this.

i did some research in to fitting the nav myself but was put off by the price of the bits needed before you could fit it!
