Well managed to install the Kenwood appleplay aftermarket headunit today and I'm liking it

How can I tell what kind of audio system I have in my A3 SLine 2.0 tdi convertible I am going to fit a Kenwood system and there are so many wiring harnesses some for half amplified some full amplified my head is spinning can someone point me in the right direction?

cheers

Hey Mark, 

abit random but I know some other members have fitted touch screen radios bought from eBay that have apps etc and have paid around £400. They have said they work really well :) Might be worth looking on there :) 

cheers

Hi all I have an A3 2012 Convertible and I am looking to upgrade the headunit was wondering whether to install an Apple Carplay unit has anyone done this if so was it an easy install? Are there any Pros & Cons? Any pics would be great thanks

Hi guys I'm wanting to put upgraded H7 headlight bulbs in the low and high beams what's the best way to get them in as there is not a lot of room to work with and I have big hands so not good as I have already replaced the DRLs with LED replacement bulbs and they were a nightmare to do on the near side I had to remove the wheel and the arch cover to get to it but was still not ideal. Makes me wonder why car companies these days make it so difficult to do a so called easy job! Any help would be appreciated I have a 2012 a3 convertible 

cheers Bubba

Hi guys I am wanting to replace my normal bulbs in my brake lights with LED ones as yet I haven't taken the rear lights out to have a look at them but can I ask what would be better white leds in the red light cluster? Or red leds? Cheers

No. The 30 pin cable needs to be unplugged from the ami in the glowbox and replaced with the one in the picture 

All I have in the glovebox is the pic

AMI - audi music interface. Its where your iphone/ipad cable is plugged in in the car . You can have varius cables ipad, usb, etc

Its usualy in the glovebox or in/under the armrest

This is the device i was refering to that plugs in to ami 

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222477402506

I have a 30 pin iPod socket in the glovebox so in the picture will the part with the arrow just plug into there?

If you have ami then you can get an usb bluetooth reciver that will conect via ligthning cable to your car . It will let you stream music 

Is the AMI different from the iPod interface? Sorry I'm new to the whole Audi thing? Where would I find the AMI if not? Cheers

Anyone?

Hi all I have a Concert head unit in my A3 2012 and it has the Bluetooth hands free system installed but I am wanting to fit a Bluetooth system so I can stream music from my iPhone. I have the 30 pin iPod system in the glove box is there a way I can utilize that to fit something for a reasonable price? Any suggestions would be appreciated cheers Bubba
