Default Upgrade to MP3 CD Changer?

Is it possible to upgrade from the old cd changer to the mp3 capabale cd changer?

I'm going nuts in my '06 A6 without the option to install AMI. I'm hoping hte recently purchased XM module will help a bit.

Default Anybody actually have the Densison unit installed in a pre-07 model?

Curious to know whether (or how well) it works in an 06.

Default In talking to my Audi rep....

the problem with our 'older' Audis is that the wiring harness does not come with the necessary connections to allow for any form of iPod integration. There is only a CD connection to the CD player.

I would be interested to know how the Gateway 500 unit overcomes the lack of a wiring harness.

Default Re: this will be cheaper:

Does this allow for navigating the iPod through the MMI?
