Anyone got any advice?

I got a Y reg S3, facelift, but the climate control unit is in the middle
under the single din cassette Symphony 1 radio, I just brought a new NAV
unit for £400, and had to buy the c/c unit for the lower compartment, which
cost me £70...got the whole thing for £470, going to be charged £50 fitting.....

Has anyone had problems changing the climate control unit to the lower compartment?

Any help would be appreciated guys, and did I get a good deal?

I am trying to do the same thing - did you get it sorted - who fitted it - where did you get the climate panel from. Darren 07958 519 121

I never actually got the correct climate control unit.

I run a salvage yard, so have 100's of breakers numbers

I been calling every day trying to locate the correct unit

The part number you are looking for is as follows

8LO 820 043 L (Make sure it is L at the end, as most salvage yards
have climate control units, but different letters. This represents differents
models such as A4's etc)

I have not had any luck, as the first one I brought the guy tried to pull
a fast one, and send the wrong unit. I got my money back, but now
I might have to go to main dealer and buy the unit brand new, if thats the case, its going to cost £550 inc Vat.

I hope your going to have better luck then me.

As for fitting, any car radio qualified person can fit it for you.
I have my cousin who is helping me, but you should not get charged
more the £70. Also, you dont need to get a GPD antenna, as the factory
fitted S3's have that on top of the roof fitted. The SAT NAV unit you buy
should have an antenna with it.

Hope this helps.

Iv attached a picture here too, for you to show people what your
talking about when you need to explain to what is it you need.
