When installing other radio units, the antenna amplifier can be influenced, since the original Audi radio units use a "remote supplied antenna" which means that the voltage supply of the antenna amplifier is supplied via the center conductor of the HF cable. Therefore use the remote supply adapter approved by Volkswagen and Audi (manufacturer: Votex).
