Replace Double-DIN stereo with Single-DIN?
Hi,
I have bought a 2004 A4 Avant which has a 6 disc in-dash changer Symhony
stereo which looks to be double-din sized.
I want to change this for a Blaunpnkt DAB-54 when they come out next month
but the Blaupunkt is single din height.
Has anybody changed a double-din for a single-din headunit, if so how?
Autoleads don't make the right adapter but I'm told that one "might" be out
next month...
Thanks
Daz

Usually it's a case of changing the double din basket for single din, plus
you have to mess around with the aircon controls and change the ashtray for
the bigger version. Your dealer will do all this for you but it will cost
£££'s
There must be an adaptor of some description to put two single din units in
a double din space - you could get a sat nav unit with a pop-out screen!
