I also have a '93 S4 and this is something a few have been wondering 
about on the list recently, myself included. 

It is apparently not too difficult to install a Concert1 (or even a 
Concert2 if you don't mind losing a few features that rely on having 
CAN-bus which pre-'98 Audi's do not have) head unit into a post-95.5 
Delta head equipped S6 (as Tom Mullane did: 

www.mswanson.com/audi/Phat_upgrade.pdf ), but for installation into an
earlier Gamma head equipped S4 more work will be needed.  

Here's a quote from Tom's reply when I asked this same question back in
August:

   "The dash fitment issues are the tip of the iceberg
    for the earlier cars, unfortunately.  The wiring is
    vastly different and much scarier.  Steve Young is
    going to attempt tho sort this out for his 93, so
    perhaps we will see a solution in the coming months."

A few others I remember off the top of my head that are interested in
doing this conversion are Steve Young and Tom Green.

Some info on Audi head units are available at

Please let me know if you figure anything out,

Count me in here too guys.  My '95 OE changer has f'd the pooch, ok so I
could score one on ebay for $25...  but...  my OE headunit is on the way
out too (knob / pop issue).  Soooooooooooooo...  

Any others out here, as in, any GP to be had on the Fat unit heh heh (I
re-fuuuuuuuse to spell Fat the 'other' way!)?  

Did Steve Young ever complete his conversion on his '93?

Need tunes.  Local radio in CT has gone down the crapper altogether!
