Below we will go over the parts needed to replace the radio in you Audi A4 2004 2005 2006.  I’m going to break this up into RNS-E Navigation radios and Symphony II in dash CD changer radios.

SymphonyII Radio Harness

The first thing you will need is a radio harness. The radio harness will connect the power and audio wires from your new radio to your car without cutting the factory wiring.

The best radio harness is the Enfig SRWH-AUD2 .  This harness will give you all your speaker leads, constant +12V, ground, switched ignition +12 power leads. It will also give you your illumination, VSS / vehicle speed sense, reverse (gives you a signal when you put the car in reverse to activate a back up cam) wires. If you add the radio specific steering wheel control lead this adapter will also enable your factory steering wheel controls to work with your car without any programing or additional modules.  It will also integrate your Bose & non Bose factory amplifier with your aftermarket radio.  (radio must have amplifier RCA outputs)

Steering wheel control option. If you add an Enfig SWCL (Steering Wheel Control Lead) to the SRWH-AUD3 the SRWH will also allow your cars steering wheel controls to control most aftermarket radios.

If you are on a budget you can get the  ENFIG RWH-AUD1B .  This harness will give you your constant +12V power and ground wires as well as factory Bose and non Bose amplifier integration. Switched ignition +12 power, Illumination, VSS / vehicle speed sense, reverse (gives you a signal when you put the car in reverse to activate a back up cam) wires are not behind the radio and must be located elsewhere in the car.

Symphony II Antenna Adapter
Your car will need an amplified antenna adapter. Your car has 2 window mounted AM/FM antennas. The Enfig AAA-VWAUD2 antenna adapter will convert your factory antenna connections  into the aftermarket radio industry standard Motorola antenna connection. It will also provide power to your antenna amplifier . You must use the amplified antenna adapter or you will have a severe loss in reception.

The Enfig AAA-VAAUD1 will also work in this application but it will only use one of your antennas. The Enfig AAA-VWAUD2 antenna adapter is a better option because it will use a both of your antennas.

If you are on a budget you can get the ENFIG RWH-AUD3B wiring harness.  It gives you power, ground and RCA out for the Bose amp.  It does not include: switched ignition +12 power, illumination, VSS / vehicle speed sense or  reverse.  If you do not have a Bose system then the ENFIG RWH-AUD3 is the budget harness.

RNS-E & Symphony II Double Din Radio Installation Dash Kit

The best double din kit is the ENFIG RMK8-A4B67.  It has a matte coating that matches the factory dash and there is no separate trim piece.

 The Metra 99-9107B listed below with the single din radio mounting kits works but since you cannot remover the radio once you install it we do not consider it compatible.
