[QUOTE="02WS6, post: 8695332, member: 678581"] Can you tell us specifically which Audi it came out of or specifically which model head unit it is? The Canbus could be used to provide anti-theft circuitry that handshakes with the Audi BCM. AFAIK if the radio uses Canbus signals, it is used for anti-theft and for sending certain drive conditions to the radio (specifically reverse signal for rearview camera). If you cut the canbus wire you may just a have a brick now as in most cases (depending on the specific model) you need a canbus simulator in order to run a canbus radio in a non-canbus car. [/QUOTE]
