2003 A4 Bose problems

[Speed addicted]

My wife has a 2003 A4 convertible with the Bose stereo, the volume control is very temperamental and tends to turn the volume right down of you touch it.

If I replace the head unit with an aftermarket one will the Bose stuff cause any issues?
I'd like to get something that looks similar but has Bluetooth/iPod connectivity.

The other option would be to repair the existing head unit if possible.

Fair enough, she was quite worried about it not looking standard. I'll have a trawl about for another one.

Which head unit is it? I've got a few older ones in a box in the cellar.

I'm offshore just now, I'll have a look when I get back.
