That looks really naff as well as chad!

Alternatives? The Audi Bluetooth which has NOTHING visible at all - you keep the RS4 steering wheel, control the phone using the controls on the sat nav, it shows calls on the sat nav AND the DIS. Much better...

Not a fan myself, I’m a big believer of everything looking OE, especially in the RS. This is a pain as I want to install phone prep. In the car and the Parrott is a far cheaper alternative to the Audi kit. Even so will be going with the Audi kit :wink:

The only real alternative is Audi oem bluetooth imo. Nothing else will come close.

It looks like you have hit something and its stuck to the windscreen. Remove or the fashion police will be after you.

I've got my Origin B2 where your Bluetooth is and I, along with the fitter who i've used for years agreed.

But I must say your detector looks good where it is but mine wouldn't look good there.

My kids are nagging me about getting a telly in car :rant:

The Parrot Bluetooth is the best bluetooth on the market!
Far superior to OEM.
Its the most fitted kit out there, the easiest to use, and has superb clarity !
I've tried it against Audi OEM, BMW OEM, and Alpine Bluetooth systems. And ripped them all out in favour of the Parrot.
If clarity, reliability and ease of use is what you're looking for, and can live with the add on screen, stick with the Parrot.
