The next step is find a power for the DVD player - this is done by running a wire to the other side of the trunk where the fusebox is located. The last part is to incorporate the Nav into the fiber optics system - this means disconnecting one cable and insert it into the nav and the output of the nav going into the original cable.

No coding was required after this for the nav to work; no going to dealer or making any changes using VAGCOM - I really like the audi nav - being built in and not having to deal with the tom-tom kinda devices with wires hanging all over (the other day I saw a bentley with a gps mounted with a suction cup - what a shame).

I think this should be the retrofit kit, but I'd confirm with the kufatec people before ordering. Wiring appears to be: http://www.kufatec.de/shop/product_i...---MMI-2G.html

no, you don't have to do the drilling part. The c-pillar has a teal colored cable coming down - you can plug into cable into the antenna cable from the Nav DVD.
