i am from the pittsburgh area (now i live in so cali)
yes the EU unit will definitely work in the US with a modified DVD.. there are a few issues detailed several place on this forum including in the helpful links.. i have had an EU unit in my '02 A4 for 3-4 months now..
after you put the 4 keys in the symphony II, you can put your fingers under the faceplate (under the chrome trim) and your thumbs in cassette deck and wiggle the unit loose.. WARNING :: you could damage your faceplate if you really go crazy, but this is how i got mine out too..
while we are on the topic, when you do get it out and go to install the RNS-E, you might want to only slide it in 98% of the way until you verify everything works correctly.. infact, mine is still not clicked in after ~4months and i have no issues..
good luck..
