I have a 2001 B5 S4, and I want to install a Eclipse Double din unit such as the AVIC 5495, but cannot find a faceplate for it. Does anyone know of a source for a mounting/faceplate for an S4?

 

Dash kit
They are alll over Ebay. I have one I might be selling for say, $25? I decided not to go aftermarket on my car so I don't need it. I just removed it from the package and test fitted it. You can remove the pocket and cut out the center bar for double din.

 

Will that Schoshe unit work with a double din head unit? It looks like it is a single Din with a pocket. Maybe you can just cut off the divider?

 

Yeah, I just said that. It even says in the included instructions to cut out the divider for double din apps.

 

Yep I cant read apparently....

 

I'm almost certain that scosche kit DOES NOT fit. This is why I had to make my own. If it's the one I ordered, it's too narrow at the upper edge, and caused me to go custom:

Let me know if you've got any questions.

If the b5 radio opening is the same as the b6 (I don't know) then it will work. I test fitted it in my B6 and it was perfect.

 

My 2000 (B5, right?) S4 Scoshe kit didn't fit. I was going to do the exact same thing, modify the single DIN opening for a double DIN radio. I got screwed out big time on ebay with shipping costs and the seller's incorrect ad (said it would fit a 2000), etc. I had to file through PayPal, etc. Big mess, and hence my caution to just say one way or the other. I suggest going to a local shop and checking with them BEFORE you buy the kit...or make it look sexy with a custom install.

 

yea scoshe womnt fit. get the b5 s4 metra kit or the kit for a 01 audi a6 either will fit. if needed you may need a back bracket but thats nothing new.

man lotta people wanting the double din action irhgt now.

 

Alright, it's confirmed....the SINGLE DIN kit from Metra, P/N: 99-9101 CAN be modified for double DIN applications. How do I know, I just did it!

Cheers,
Matt
