I bought a DVD player, and I want to put it where the stereo is, but the stereo isn't the standard size that all other ones are because of that bit of plastic going around the outside.. Am I stuck with that? If I was to just cut the whole thing out and put the dvd player in there, then there would be a big gap going all the way around it..

Is there any way to make it fit with no gaps?
When u tale out the stereo the metal casing behind *should* be standard size, but the plastic will not fit. Its a simple case of gettin a plastic rectangle to fill the space :shrug:

interesting that the drink holder is in front of the air conditioner vents and above the instruments.

is it ever a bother when you have cold(drip factor) or hot drinks(A/C factor)?

Custom job...

If your an idiot and dont just buy a replacement bracket for it.. O_o

Just need a proper install kit.. Local car audio stores and ebay should be enough to find one..
[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

Mate is getting his A3 1.8T upgraded to aprox. 280 HP. I'll post some pictures and a video when it gets back from the shop.

I had A3 1.6 a few years ago, stupid mistake to sell that baby...
