The KWAUDI6 installaon kit allows for the retenon of the vehicle’s steering wheel controls and helps to main-
tain the original aesthec of the interior when installing a new car stereo. The KWAUDI6 gives you everything
you need for a complete install in one box. The components of this kit are compable for the Audi A3 (8P,
2003-2012) with Concert, Chorus or Symphony factory stereos. The wiring harness and interface will retain the
steering wheel controls, factory phone buons and the BOSE amplied system (if vehicle is equipped). Supplied
with both ISO & Quadlock connectors.

2. Using a set of panel removal tools, begin to pry away the pillar casing.
4. The DAB antenna not only has a self adhesive backing, but also features a black earth sheet. When plac-
ing the DAB antenna, the earth sheet  be placed onto the metal part of the pillar. The antenna itself
must be located roughly 15cm from the top of the windscreen.

5. Once happy with the placement, take the 3m of wiring extension and feed it down through to the
stereo’s opening. With the wiring adjusted to the appropriate length, feel free to re-install the glovebox.
3. The glovebox will need to be dropped down to route the antennas wiring. To do this, use an 8mm socket
to undo 2x screws located at the boom of the glovebox, and 3x screws located just within the lip. Once
free, simply leave in the footwell.

1. Start by aaching the brackets to the new stereo. These brackets allow you to set the specic depth of
the unit in relaon to the fascia plate. Start by lining up the spacerson the inside of the plates
.
2. Aach the spacer and plate combinaon to the corresponding side of the stereo using the screws that
come with the stereo. Then simply slide the stereo into the radio cage.
3. Take the fascia in hand, and slide the cage through the front of the fascia. If the depth/alignment of the
stereo hangs out too much/is reccessed to far, use the radio removal keys to release the stereo
from the cage and repeat the process.
