chavez Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 That came out really nice. Very clean! Props on rowing with the 6MT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Audibeer Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 wrap your unit trim piece in some maching aluminum and it would look hot. I did that with my z1 in my audi and it's a great piece which makes the whole interior come together as one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cmk1523 Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Elohite, I'm wondering how you did your mounting into the dash. It looks like a regular Audi Metra Double-Din with something on the inside? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nick526 Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Audi has the best looking interior of any car IMO Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest astrobill Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Nearly perfect.... ...the one thing you forgot to do was mimic the aluminum/chrome trim that was built-in along the bottom of the Audi Symphony radio to seperate it visually from the climate controls. Here's what I did back when I had a D3 installed in my Audi A4: I bought a roll of stick-on chrome trim at an AutoZone, and I cut a segment to fit along the bottom of the Metra fascia. It looked like a perfect match to the Audi factory aluminum/chrome trim. Everyone thought it was a factory install... If I can find a photo of my install, I'll post it here.

Yettavr6 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I would love to see those pictures. I am in the market for a used 07-08 A4 and would be putting an F900BT in it. Just having trouble finding the car i want... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yettavr6 Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Elohite, does you audi have the Bose or the standard Symphony system (or aftermarket)? How does it sound with the D3 now? I'm in the market for an A4, and i found a 06 that is exactly what i want. It has the standard Symphony system, and im just wondering what i should expect from it with a new head unit. My VW has the monsoon system, which sounded terrible with the stock headunit, but now sounds terrific with my D3. I LOVE to crank my music. I love a nice clear, full sound, with good bass, and i feel no need to upgrade any components of the monsoon system. I'm hoping the symphony will be equally impressive with a new HU.

jtav2002 Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Looks good. That's a great detector too. I have one hardwired as well. Only mine is on the opposite side of the mirror. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest astrobill Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Here's what my AVIC-D3 install looked like in my Audi after I added the chrome trim underneath the fascia/faceplate...sorry for the cell phone quality photo... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
