They are a little improved since '86, but I went with an aftermarket
CD player for my '89 100Q. I got a good deal on a Kenwood CD player
(not changer): $259.

The Audi's have DIN mounts, and good wiring harnesses, so most aftermarket
radios install quite easily. The only thing I needed was an impedance
matcher for the powered rear speakers.

The new player sounds 200% better than any stock stereo I've ever had.
I never keep stock for long.
