Advice needed for RNS-E - fitting to A4 from A3

[sanjjassal]

Hi guys - apologies if anything in the post does not make sense or I have not provided enough information (first time poster)

I have just purchased a 57 Plate Audi A4 2.0T Petrol S-line, with the standard Audi Concert head unit. I've seen an Audi RNS-E unit on eBay going for a pretty decent price, and have confirmed an offer with the buyer - but before committing, wanted to get some advice.

The unit is from an A3 apparently, and has the model number: 8PO 035 192Q

So i guess the main question is, would this fit into my A4? And would it require a lot of work - extra parts, cables etc

Many thanks for any assistance

You'll need the a4 faceplate. Which appear to be like rocking horse poo to get!

Audi never made the faceplate available as a separate part, so you need someone who has either scrapped an RNS-E and removed it or just happens to have one lying around.
