[s-cars] aftermarket head units

[Jeremy Palenchar]

I like this head unit:

http://www.crutchfield.com/s_500CDE103B/Alpine-CDE-103BT.html?tp=5684

It has BlueTooth built in and it has RCA outs that can be used with the
ground loop isolators connecting to the Bose amps. iPod connector can be had
for another $30 or so.

You can trick Crutchfield into giving you the correct wiring harness (has
RCA inputs to Audi wiring harness) and plastic surround by playing around
with the car you are trying to outfit.

I agree that the controls are not the best but this is a great price for BT
and iPod in a headunit that can match your audi interior.
