RE: Still looking for car stereo activation help! 86 5KTQ

I seem to have found the stereo from the twilight zone here.  Everyone
keeps telling me that what I have, cannot be.  Here's the full scoop on
this stereo.

First off, I believe it came out of nothing newer than an 87 5K because
that is the oldest that this wrecker had in the yard.  He had 7 - 5K's
in all (none were quattro)  (Yes, yes, I live in a small town....)  

On the front of the stereo, the only identifying words are "Audi" with
"security protection" underneath.  On the flat top of the stereo, the
factory sticker shows:
Audi logo, VW logo Volkswagen Canada Inc 
and the address in Ontario.

Model NO. X 034 300 D
also has serial number and chassis number.

Another factory label has " Warning.  This radio is protected.. blah
blah blah.. totally in-operational."  On either side of this warning is
a hexagon (stop sign) shape and the one on the left has a blue dot
sticker in it. (don't know if this is relevant or not)  Also, there is a
sticker showing the pin connection for the wiring harness.  There are 4
pins that the harness plugs into and seven wires (3 of them are doubled
up) on the harness end.

The sticker on the radio showing the purpose of each pin has me a bit
confused.  It shows a minus sign (ok- ground), a plus sign (ok- power) a
sun sign (?????) and then what I assume is an antenna symbol.  Looks
like a capital Y with a 3rd branch pointing straight up between the V. I
assume this one operates the power antenna when you turn the radio on. 

I don't see any other brand names at all, anywhere on the radio.

Still tuneless....and looking for help....
