Head unit upgrade
« on: March 12, 2011, 01:50:58 pm »
Hi im new to the site.

Im looking to upgrade the standard headunit to a vw touchscreen one with phone bluetooth connectivity.

What is the best one to get and is the bluetooth stuff built in or do you need an extra unit ?

Thanks in advance

JD

Youll need to add the VW bluetooth kit onto whichever one you get, as they arent integrated into one unit at this point in time.
