presumably the dealer could switch the rear panel, if he has a suitably
colored car that he's using as a swapper source.

we think the bose system in our a4q1.8t sounds very good. it has drawn
appreciative comments from passengers. very well controlled sound that
is nicely balanced and doesn't boom. some listers seem to disparage it
however. a friend with an a4v6 was dissappointed with the regular
stereo  has replaced it and recommended the upgrade as the only thing
he'd do differently if he bought the car again.
