Hello,
I'm brazilian and I have a Audi A3 1.8T. I want to change the head unit for a Pioneer 860mp, but I don't know how do I take the original HU off... anyone can help me? (with images, if possible).
The original HU: http://www.mercadolivre.com.br/org-img/original/MLB/102004/22333288_5003.jpg
Brazilian cars are easier to work (talking about changing the sound equipment, because they usually don't have the head unit "together" with the dashboard)...
The Pioneer 860mp (or others) isn't as big as the original HU that comes in A3...
Sorry if there's already a post like this one, but I tried to find in the search and I couldn't.
Thanks

Then slot these in with the angled sides facing towards each other. Slowly push them in feeling for some resistance. Don't over push them as you'll bend the spring clips and jam the HU in there.
You'll need the Audi facia adapters available from your Audi dealer, to cover the gaps at each side of the original HU.
