Default Anybody installed mods4cars remote roof top (smarttop)

Anybody installed this on the 2007 A4?

https://www.wilhelmy-it.de/

Found it when considering a CLK350... (but have ordered an A4 Cab instead).

Looking for experiences (good or bad)

Default I had just ordered 1 for myself

Just placed my order yesterday and they will deliver it to me by this week. Looking forward to install it.
A friend of mine actually tried it and its working beautifully in his A4cab.

I just installed one. Works just like it says. The directions that are on the web site have a wiring error. The ones that came in the box were correct. I used the ones of the web site. The print is bigger. I called they were great. The helped me figure out the error right away about 7 pm on friday night.

Default LOL Had the same problem installing mine last night

was quite funny, I called the number and got a very helpful guy in Germany at 2:00 AM in the morning local time.

Funny thing was he said I was the third person calling about the A4 that day. The website was wrong, enclosed manual right.

Great product.

Default Found my first two problems.

ok - so I've found my first two problems.

I've got an 07 A4...

Problem 1: The chirping feature doesn't completely work. On setting 2 (Lock + unlock), only the lock works

Problem 2: When doing any of the advanced functions (windows or top), the radio (if it was on when I got out of the car), turns on and does not turn off (even after waiting 5 minutes)... Will be nice to come out to a dead battery...

Anybody else with an 07 confirm these problems? Thanks.

I dont know about an 07, but on an 05 the radio will run for one hour if you push the ****. I wonder if it will take an hour for yours to shut off.

With the mod installed my 05 radio seems to just run the radio while the top is moving. One thing I have noticed is that with the head lights in automatic, at night, if I open the drivers door while the top is in operation the chime goes nuts and the head lights flash like crazy.

I'm in contact with the developer to see if we can come up with a fix - will let you know...

I don't like the idea of my radio running for an hour while I'm not in the car :-)

Default Re: Anybody installed mods4cars remote roof top (smarttop)

Hi! I am interested in the smarttop auto roof opener.
Can anyone tell me where to buy one?
How much do they cost?
Stafford audi are advertising the kit fitted for £399,is this a good deal? As Audi are carrying out the conversion i assume the warranty remains valid.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
