I need some help. I am hooking up an amp with a line out converter. Does anyone know what wires to use behind the radio for the signal to the line out. Also, how do you pull out the radio. I have the audi stock 10 speaker system. It is not the bose setup. Please help me with whatever i will need to know to install the amp.

you need to buy the Blaupunkt RCA adapter which just plugs into the back of all Audi head units to give you standard front & rear RCA's and remote on. It is the yellow plug on the back of the HU.
You also need the Audi keys to get the HU out. They can be a real b*gger to release as the spring clips have a tendancy to fall off and wedge themselves behind the fascia. So tread carefully.

will i lose anything from using the blau harness. do i have to unplug the existing speakers, or is there an extra opening on the radio from the door.
whats the part number for the harness

You'll probably lose the rear speakers as they are usually amped separately (not sure on the newer models). If all you need is output for a sub then it would be easier to tap into the rear speaker amp to get the line outs to your sub amp.

I need help to figure out which wires on the amp in the trunk will feed sound to the line out converter. Any extra info will help. Thanks
