Off-topic, apologies - but I thought I recognised the Avatar... Hello - I'm Andi, the admin from THE Corrado Forum... also, now an A3 owner
As for the iPod - you could go aftermarket. xCarLink kit would do it and preserve your CD changer (if you have one) or a Dension unit if you don't. Saves on a new glovebox and you could route it to the armrest instead, which is probably a better location.
ahhh hello. Kryten can be spotted spotted anywhere
That Xcarlink looks fantastic for what i need (displays song names on screen which is what i really want) and for a fraction of the cost of an AMI unit and new glovebox.
Only issue i can see is the Xcarlink is for the MK1 RNS-E (upto 2009) only, where as ive just brought the MK2 unit (2011). Not sure if this would still work or not =/
