Important: Your Audi owner’s manual specifically states that the installation of non-Audi approved accessories such as radios, radar detectors, telephones, etc. may cause damage to the vehicle, affect the vehicles safety, interfere with the electrical system of the vehicle or affect the validity of the Audi Limited Warranty. The Automotive Data Research Interface is not an approved Audi accessory. important: If you are unfamiliar with automotive electrical systems, see a mechanic or car-stereo installer. Some knowledge of automotive electrical systems and of interior trim removal is necessary to do it yourself. If you doubt your abilities to do the install safely and without damaging anything in your car, it is best to leave the installation process to someone who is trained in such matters.
