Hi I've just retrofitted a reverse camera kit on my mk7 gtd non sat nav but I assume that doesn't make any difference.But it all went pear shaped when I tried to activate with vcds.it would appear it doesn't support my car.Ive ordered a more up to date vcds on eBay .Has anybody successfully done this?Was a genuine vw retrofit kit I got so fingers crossed.
What car model is the camera from?
What model is your car?
I had the same problem fitting a highline camera from a Passat to my 6R
Had to change the model in VCDS to Passat. It now works
On the Golf Mk 7 the reverse camera will only work with certain head units.

Assume you've posted this is VWROC? Know of a few peeps over there who have retrofitted RVC to their Mk7 but can't remember which Headunit they have. I'll have a look.
Will have to remove media unit and check part number.new vcds software should be here soon .will let you know how I get on.
My vag number on ecu is 5g0 035 820a so according to that link is not compatible with my new camera lol.
Rev cam works on Discover Media and Discover Pro. Your one is composition so nope
I finally got my reverse camera to work .i bought a kenwood / garmin sat nav retrofit kit and was able to wire in my vw camera into it and now working fine plus I've got sat nav.
