> [@94wvwglxvr6](#): > > wow… thats fucking retarded. if your factory system is decent it is the only way to go. i hate it when the lights don’t match. or even during the day when all of the buttons arent the same shapes and don’t carry the same theme. it’s like something was randomly stuck in the middle of the dash. BTW, autohaus or vw of op might be able to help you out with getting those codes. i don’t think it is something u can pull using a ross-tech VAG-com ---

> [@soopa7fly](#): > > people pay a lot of money for factory headunits. lets use my old 2000 blazer as an example. a brand new delco cd deck from GM would have cost me about $600. it was almost 3 years old when i sold it on ebay for $325. i bought a brand new pioneer for $250 and cha ching, $75 profit. yea and u can call and get your radio code for free. now do u see my point? ---

> [@2TurboZ](#): > > I guess none of you went past the 3rd grade and mastered reading comprehension. I can read. Audis are expensive to maintain, no matter what angle you look at it. That is somthing I thought was common knowledge, and something you should have known before you bought one. ---

Okk Mr. Retard If you could read…I am not at all unaware of what it costs to maintain a foreign car considering I have owned Porsche, Nissan, and now the Audi, but the Cannot Read comment is for those who could not read that I simply ended up with installing an aftermarket head unit in the dash because I was not about to pay the 80 bux plus the 210 for the changer when I could simply get one installed in the dash for less $. I will label you one who cannot comprehend what he is reading…since you say you can read but still have no idea what you are posting in response to my original post. AND FOR THE FARGIN RECORD…GM, MITSU, ALL HAVE RADIO CODES so its not like a luxury car item only. AND SORRY THAT MY 10 YR OLD CAR THAT HAS HAD SEVERAL OWNERS DID NOT COME WITH AN OWNERS MANUAL…GUESS THAT SHOULD HAVE MADE ME NOT BUY IT :BLOATED: ---

> [@Adictd2b00st](#): > > nah man its fucked up, so that every time your battery dies they are guaranteed another $80 to reset your radio. even if you take the car to THEM to replace the battery, they still will tack on the $80 to pull that code. other cars have codes in their radios, and i know for a fact you don’t have to pay anything to get those codes… When the battery resets it won’t erase the memory, only when it’s unplugged.
