Description
Aftermarket radio installations in Volkswagens are rarely a plug and play operation. They usually require extensive wiring, additional adapters, and a dashboard trim kit. The result is a head unit that sticks out like a sore thumb and doesn't match the design of the interior.
Bremmen Parts is aware of these issues and is proud to offer a direct-fit multimedia head unit that alleviates the inherent issues with universal aftermarket radios. Bremmen's Android Multimedia System features an 7" capacitive touch screen and fits snugly within the uniquely shaped factory radio cut-out while bolting into the same locations as the factory radio. The included wiring harness allows for a nearly plug and play installation.

- Includes harnesses for early models with the single-DIN head unit and late models with the double-DIN head unit.
Installation Tips:
- Two screws on the top of the radio must be removed in order for the disk drive to work properly.
- In most cases, the included external microphone is not necessary as the microphone built into the radio face plate is sufficient.
- Later models may require an additional wire to tap into a switched 12v source. (The terminal marked "75X" with a yellow sticker directly above the dead pedal is a good switched 12v source in MK4 models)
- Due to the additional bulk of harnesses and adapters, the rear radio bracket may need to be trimmed in MK4 models. This is typical for double-DIN head unit installations in MK4s.
- Fully test the radio before you finish the installation.
- Earlier models may require a different antenna adapter than the one included.
Limitations:
- Not compatible with CD changer.
- Music cannot be listened to directly off of a smartphone or iPod via USB cable. Music must be played off of a device plugged into the stereo auxiliary input, streamed over Bluetooth, played off of a USB flash drive or MicroSD card, or imported to the radio's flash storage.
