Hi, I bought an A4 B6 about 1 month ago, and the first thing I wanted
to do, was install a car stereo solution ( a new amp ).

Yesterday I started on the job, cabling from the front to the luggage
compartment, and holy sh.t.. it's a lot of work. Audi haven't exactly
made this easy. I spent 8 hours, the first 5 hours was just basically
reading my Keynes manual and being careful so I didn't break any
expensive plastic.. then the actual work..

And to add pain to misery, I found out, after closing up on one side,
that I hadn't left enough cable on the other end.. I also found out
that I somehow didn't get the seatbelt guide in properly, so the
seatbelt was very slow, and eventually I had to take out the seat belt
guide / upper B-pillar trim again. So now I'm driving around with a
loose upper B-pillar trim on my chest ..

So now I have to do the entire side over again, although I guess I
won't use more than 1-2 hours this time, it's not exactly tempting.

Before I do it again:
Has anyone else does this, has any experiences or insight they want to
share (preferably comforting ones.. ;).
It was hard finding room for all the cables under the foam, and to be
honest, I'm still not sure if this is the way to place the cabling.

Thanks,
Gustav Tresselt

Hmm the standard 10 speaker setup is a great system anyway, just replace the
head unit?
The only wire I could imagine you would need is a batery power to the boot
for an AMP to run a seperate sub for more bass should you need it.

What are you trying to achive?
