JeremyP, which surround adaptor did you use exactly? I've found these for around £10-15 and there is another kit for £35-40 which includes the cage.

Cheers.

Tony. I used the one with the cage although I only used the surround (not cage or foam padding, unit trim etc). It's a Connects2 CT23AU03A.

Dynamic Sounds A6 Surround

Its spooky how your dash seems to have morphed. Small for the 1st unit, big for the second. I keep looking and just don't get it
Nice job though. Neat and professional

It's the surround... The Double DIN surround moves the aircon controls lower to fit it all in.

I have to admint, much as I dont want to, it does actually look quite good.... Its probably the best non-Audi install of a headunit I've seen in the D2 yet, which is a combination of sourcing the A6 facia plate and adapting, and picking a 'sensible looking' headunit which doesnt look like a prop out of star trek...

(I really didnt like that first Alpine.... )

Looks good,

Very nice install,
The cogs between my ears are whirring hard now, just that mine's a pre-facelift, so double din could be a tad trickier.....
