This is a hardwired direct plug in so it's better. Sound good as you can get with this type of setup. Engine noise present if you crank up your volume.

FM modulation has very little volume on an aftermarket source and the sound quality is sub par.

Becker 220 (right?) out of a 99 C4

Is there any reason you choose to keep the becker unit? They are not known by ferrari, porsche, or mercedes to be best of units for SQ or output. You can save alot of trouble, have MUCH better sound, and not leave any traces of an aftermarket radio installed if done correctly and put the becker back in if you chose to sell the car for any reason. Just my 2 cents. AFtermarket stereo to ipod integration along with bluetooth for your cell phone all through your stereo makes things alot more appealing to me. Less work, with more drivin
