Parrot into a MK6 golf
« on: December 26, 2012, 11:38:32 pm »
Hey up all.

When I installed a Parrot kit into a Polo 9n, i just used the supplied cables into the quad locks. Easy peasy.

Can i do the same with a Parrot kit in the MK6 golf, specifically the RCD210 radio as below?



Thanks in advance.

Rich

should be the same as the other one, some you have to add a wire to a switched live

I'm surprised that you haven't upgraded the RCD210 to a 310 or better

Ta Eddie.

Not sure there's much to be gained from buying a rcd310.

Wonderful. Thanks again. I'm sick of Laura untangling iPhone headphones to take calls, it's only time before she has an accident.

Ill look forward to fitting it :-)

Its easier to fit than in a mk5 as its much easier to remove the head unit. Think it only took me about 15-20 mins to remove head unit, fit Parrot and refit head unit  :signLOL:

Hmm, looking at that its just a plug and play mate..

The one's I have fitted are the ck3100, all had the same style bullet connectors for power just like un your diagram (note, you might need to swap red to orange of the unit does not power off when ignition is turned off) but still required a 12v connection (was a red lead)..

Can you take a pic of the wiring in the Parrot box?

Actually, now that I think about it, the 12v red lead that required connecting was off the adaptor that was required (car specific)
