<< Hey
 
 I have an 86 5kcstq and the radio is a bit screwey.  A friend gave me
 a factory radio from a 90 Audi, it is a Blau radio with front and rear
 antenna inputs and the clips are different from the 86.  First, is
 there an adapter for the antennas?  Second, is there a a "clip" to go
 from the 90 radio to generic wires?  And i guess the most important
 question is Will the 90 radio work with the 86 amps?  I am trying for
 a solution where I do not have to rewire all 10 speakers, this is why
 I am trying to stay factory.....FOR NOW

	I don't know if they make a kit for this swap but your dealer actually has
conversion kits to convert older style radio plugs to the newer style plug.  I
would check with your local dealer usually they have the kits shown in there
big accessory catalog and they usually have an application chart to go along
with it.  Good Luck
