I just did this a few weeks ago, there is a VW/Audi kit that has the
speaker and radio sections without the CD section.  The one I bought
had two loose blue wires so you can avoid the cruise control wiring
brain damage and only insert them where needed.

About $15 bucks on a whim at the local Car Toys.
