Position in these cars is a tough decision. I would put the DVD player where the stock head unit is and then put the stereo in the coin tray slot below it. If you have the electronic climate control, I can already tell you there isn't enough depth to put a DIN sized unit of any kind in there. Check out my carputer thread to get an idea. I did it in my 95 and in my 99 (the pics are accurate except for the 99 where I now have a Blaupunkt deck instead of the factory head unit as pictured). You're going to lose the CD changer if you add an aftermarket deck, so I would go with a head unit that does DVD and MP3 playback to make up for that. You're going to need a VW/Audi wiring harness for the aftermarket deck hook up. Do a search for the Nakamichi deck install to see the wiring diagram. Also, you will need a VW/Audi antenna adapter, I believe the one I have for my Blaupunkt is the VW 6 antenna adapter. You local car stereo place or Best Buy/Circuit City should have botht the antenna adapter and the wiring harness.
