Mounting CD Changer in 1997 Audi A6 Quattro?
Greetings to all.
I just recently purchased a mint condition 1997 Audi A6 Quattro. I love it. Only thing I didn't like about it was it didn't come with a cd player/changer. Becuase whoever bought it didn't have the optional cd changer package installed in it. So I bought a CD changer off eBay. Got it today. I plugged it in the 8-pin plug (which runs from the right side of the trunk) and it works fine. Crystal clear in the Bose speakers. Now. The CD changer came with the mounting bracket, screws to mount the CD changer to the brackets and the screws for the bracket to be mounted to the car. It seems with how the changer sits in the bracket that it will be mounted from the top of the trunk. But I can't seem to find any mounting holes/screws. Am I over looking something or what. The bracket has 3 places for screws. The left side of the bracket has 2 screw places. The back-left screw-place is a little higher set than the left-front screw place. And the right side of the bracket only has on screw place in the middle. Any ideas?

can you take a picture of your changer and the braket for me? That will make it easier, there are several styles of brackets.

I also recently bought a 1997 Audi A6 Quattro Avant and it has the stock radio (Audi Delta/Bose) radio with controls for a CD player but no CD changer. I am having trouble locating a CD changer which is unquestionably compatible with the radio. Any suggestions?

Those changer brackets are definetly designed to be mounted on the upper trunk deck. If you can't find the holes, are you confortable drilling a couple small ones? It shoulnt be a big deal.
97's require an 8 Pin CD changer. There are really only two options. Go to the dealer and buy one for 500 bucks, or surf ebay and buy one for 200 bucks.
