I would think you shouldn't have a problem rewiring it that way. The
only draw back is the the Audis do not have a accessory position on the
Ign switch. You will not be able to have the radio on without the car
running.
I plan on wiring my radio up to the power window/sun roof power.
The reason for this is on my 89 200TQ that power source stays hot until
you open and close your door after. This way I can have the radio on
until I leave the car. I have a aftermarket radio so the ON/OFF lead
uses minimal power. I wonder if anybody else has done it this way?
