Default Installation Kit

Wow, finding the right installation kit for my 01 Audi A4 with Bose has been a pain. First I asked the guy at Best Buy and he gave me a kit, but It didnt fit so I returned it. The other guy there said that they do have the right one but I have to order it online, so I did. It came today but that one doesn't fit either, it's not wide enough. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....egories&ks=960

So, does anyone know the right one, haha.

The one I got is that, but it's not wide enough. You still need the right one and that's what I'm saying I've tried buyin the right one that says its for 01 AUdi A4 but it doesn't fit.

the one from best buy looks like the outer edge is straight vs the one from ebay has the curve that our car has. try buying an oem one that fits the 99.5 single din A4s

yes it WILL work. circuit city price was bout $20 for each thing. try this http://cgi.ebay.com/2000-2001-AUDI-A...3A1%7C294%3A50
it includes everything you need, even the removal tools, for not a bad price at all. make sure the radio you get has at least two sets of rca's (three if your running subs). the harness has a couple of wires and four rca plugs (hence why you need at least two sets of plugs). the rca's run to the stock amp
