Erm.. not really. The only options are either a 3rd party kit which is a bit of a bodge, or the Audi kit. But this is just for phone. You then would need AMI for music from it.

right sorry about my ignorance in the previous reply !
done a bit of research on the AMI aspect of things and it aint lookin cheap.....until....

i found this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Audi-Ipod-Inte...item2a07612d2c

does anyone know know if this is the right part number etc for a 2004 D3 ????

seems awfully cheap considering these units usually go for around £250+.

too good to be true ?

That looks like the fella.. You'd need the cable for the ipod/HDD which is about £30 or so.

Looks like it's the kit for going alongside the CD Changer. I just swapped mine over as it's really easy.

Cheapest way is with a tv tuner.

On av 1 input use a phono to stereo cable and run from front to back.

Sorry to revive an old thread but if antone's interested, I fitted a mobridge unit to my D3 when I bought an iphone - provides a cable for charging (still need to route that into the armrest) which also allows you to use it through the MMI as another CD changer. Phone is through bluetooth - just need to run a new MIC cable up to the mirror area - 10 minute job. The mobridge unit replaces the built in 'phone module under the seat - no codng required.

Though, for a similar (or smaller) amount, you could get an AMI and Audi Bluetooth kit too.
