    Double Din blasphemy???

    Started tearing apart the stereo today, the rear speakers sounded like the amp wasn't grounded and making it almost impossible to listen to music, and with all the property in the existing stereo area I started wondering about Double Din stereos. I am wanting a stereo that is iPhone compatible, with pre amp outs for both front and rear and having a problem finding head units that fit in the single din position that I like - have always been a Pioneer or Nakamichi head unit guy but need the LEDs of the stereo match the Audi dash.

    Have seen a few different posts about the double din but wondering just how hard it is to move the switches. Also my stock stereo works even when the car is turned off, is this normal?

    Thanks for reading

    Cheers

      That is kind of the way I thought it should work, maybe a timed delay but it just keeps on playing unless I turn the power off on the stereo.

      Have to see what the previous owners have done.

      Cheers

        FWIW Pioneer make decks that are very close to the stock lighting in a UrS4. I really liked mine using the Bluetooth to stream music.
