No, I was talking about the Kenwood head-unit. I thought I had read in this thread it wasn't being shipped until later in April.

Got my Kenwood today. Very nice indeed. I will have it installed next week and start a new thread.
Congrats, looking forward to your next post! Love the feature set on that monster. Post a vid of the UI if you can....
So, has anyone successfully installed an RNS-E system AND a steering wheel with controls in a C5 A6/S6/RS6?
I finally got my RNS-E system installed in my '03 RS6 and it's talking to the Sirius Sat system, my blue tooth setup and the nav system works too. Now, because my R8's spoiled me with on the wheel controls, I'm wanting to change out the stock wheel in my RS6 to one that will allow me the freedom to control via the wheel.
Anyone have a clue on what to do and where to look?
An R8 and an RS6 in one garage: It doesn't get much better!
I've heard on RS246.com of someone installing the Multi-function steering wheel on the RS6 of the same year RS6 but they don't have the paddles so you would loose that. The later MFS with paddle won't work because the airbags are a different generation.

I believe that BUY.com has this unit for $1,300. Sorry that I don't check-in as often as I should. I think that Crutchfield (the usual rip off artists) are even selling it for $150 off the price listed. Members should also try www.onlinestereo.com as they often have some really good deals as well.
