Wonder it it would be plug and play?
sadly my experience has been that the Euro and N.A light units are not interchangeable - probably since 993/996 days ... *maybe* 997 ... YMMV

Yep. In the US the same. Only the Spyder has Burmester as optional. GT4 only has Bose. Not sure if the dealer can add this on the GT4 though, I haven't asked.

[QUOTE=tdlondon;16683133]Unfortunately the GT4 doesn't seem to have Burmester as an option in the configurator. The Bose speakers are garbage. Anyone knows good aftermarket speakers that fit the BOSE system? In my daily BMW Bavsound makes awesome speakers that fit exactly in the original mounts of the car, so zero adaptation or cut-outs necessary.[/QUOTE

Great comparo shot with Navarro blue. Every time I see a Navarro blue audi I'm thinking it looks a lot like GB... It does!
