stereo "infill pieces"...

[LOWRAG]

Have just fitted aftermarket head unit and need the small "infill pieces" either side of the head unit....anyone know where to get??

[Skull]

you will need to change the whole center console. what HU did you had? audi delta?

What Skull just said.

Any Audi 80 car has the same centre bit, quite easy to change.

i dont agree with the easy part. if you have all the buttons in, it is a pita to disconnect and reconnect all of them. than i have da boost gauge in the vent...

U.K cars don't have the buttons, they have the dials.

Never tried on a LHD.

Dammn...i have the new console..but after laying the loom which took ages i couldnt deal with changing the console seeing as it fit!i figured that you might be able to get those little bits...obviously not!
Lazy option Plan B.. cut up a new console and add the lil pieces on???
maybe thats too back yard!!

sorry i call the buttons, but they are called switches. i was talking about the fogs, seatheating, 4 blinker, glass heating... switches.

Yeah delta...

is the stereo just a little too thin to fill the gap? autoleads sell filler plates for fitting standard DIN sized head units to non standard spaces

what car is it?

get a normal frame, visit a local scrappy. everything fits from year 86

radio fill peices

morning

if you go to your local friendly/helpfull stealers


you can get part numbers for radio side fill in plates
they came in early A4 when Audi supplied them with Sony headsets

the end plates where used to fill in gaps around the rAdio/consol

OR

a prev suggested AUTOLEADS do sell copy endplates.....check local Halfrauds/Motorworld



hope this helps

i'd suggest most websites or independents before halfords. always very expensive for their autoleads bits. that's who I worked for in my ICE fitting days. I feel dirty admiting that.

How about this......

I send you the centre upright section from a standard S2, which has a standard DIN size radio aperture you need and you sell me your over sized Cabby centre section.

Reason: well I want to fit an Audi Cabby radio into my S2 and need the slightly wider console, whilst you want to fit a standard radio and therefore need to change your wide for a standard console.

Cheeky I know, but since very few Cabby's get scrapped, finding a centre consle is proving difficult, so I am having to resort to bare-faced tactics now

Cheers n

Si

P.S. I'll pay for P&P both ways
