Upgrade Details:

This Audi R8 came in for a wireless CarPlay upgrade, and the Sony XAV-AX6000 was the perfect choice. It fits seamlessly into the dash, and with the integration kit, we were able to keep the factory amplifier intact. To retain the factory reverse camera, we tracked down the separate camera module—located behind the front passenger seat—then rewired and rerouted it to work perfectly with the new Sony head unit.
