Default Ok, I am drooling about Head Units

I keep seeing On and Off that some people have changed their 3" Head unit to the 6" version or approx. Center Console has to be changed and so On.

Please save me the Time for research. Has anyone done this esily. Where do you get replacement console. Any pictures of the finished product?

Just cuz u drive an audi doesn't make you to kool to use google.

Yesterday I google "audi a4 b5 center console mod" and accidentally found everything you could possibly need or want to kno in a post.
He shows you all the different options, where they came from and how to interchange them.

I'd give u the url but I'm on my blackberry. I will wen I get home if I remember.

I have successfully accomplished the swap. It's pretty straight forward and as long as you can find parts cars with the necessary bits you can save yourself a ton of money. If you cannot find parts cars, you can find everything on eBay. As long as you don't have a '96 like I do, you shouldn't run into problems. I know of maybe two others on this forum that have completed this swap as well.

I used the thread below on Audizine to complete this swap

I'll post pics later when I'm done writing my paper

Thanks man. These Days searching on Yahoo or Google shows nothing but Chinese or Indian Wholesale Junk. Like, Alibaba . Much easier on the Soul than just asking you guys.
