Add External CD Playback

The Pro Star CarPlay USB CD Player adds a single-disc CD drive to 2019-2026 Audi A8 models that lack a factory unit. It connects directly to the vehicle's USB port and draws power from the same connection. No extra wiring or tools are required for installation. The device can be mounted vertically or horizontally on the centre console or in the glove box.

Suits CD Owners, Not Digital-Only Users

This unit suits drivers who still listen to physical CDs and want them integrated with the factory radio and steering-wheel controls. It is not for buyers who only stream audio or use digital files, because the hardware provides no benefit without discs. It also does not suit owners of other vehicle makes or model years outside the stated range.

2019-2026 Audi A8 Compatibility

The only specification that determines fitment is the 2019-2026 Audi A8 application window. The player communicates through the car's USB port using CarPlay, so the vehicle must support that interface within those model years. If the car falls outside this range, the unit will not function as intended.
