Schlegle910 · 06-15-2007, 01:21 PM

ok i have a 1996 audi a6 quattro and i want to put in the kenwood reciever i just bought. But ive ran into a problem becuase the person who had the car before me took the reciever with them and just left me with a hole in the dash and a butchered wiring job(they cut off the little ends that the wires are supposed to be connected into) so all i have is a jumble of colorful wires, could someone please tell me the color code for these wires (brown=ground) that kind of thing. It would be greatly appreciated

thanks

Audi radios are a strange bunch and adding aftermarket radios are not for the faint at heart.

You need to get a wiring diagram to see where the wire go and come from. Additionally you'll need to know what system was in the car. If it was Bose the amplifiers are in the speakers etc.
