Dear John, We returned this item because we took it to the VW Dealership that does the work on our Jetta and they said the system was NOT an OEM as advertised, but rather "Made in China". VW would NOT install and recommended we go to a 3rd Party Installer and that the Dealership would not insttall, maintain and/or repair this unit as they only work on TRUE OEM Equipment. LCLC

I installed it into my 08 GTI fairly easily. They only hard part was taking apart the dash.

Installation is "plug and play" no cable cutting. I installed mine with guidance from youtube..."how to replace VW passat 2010 DVD/CD/SOUND Player"

You do not need a pro if you are comfortable removing dash parts. There is literally no electrical work to be done other than running gps cables etc.

If it is compatible, it was truly "plug and play". For the price, you can't beat it. It is OEM, but it is not exactly an "original".

I purchased 3 of these. Would I do it again? ABSOLUTELY NOT! We found the GPS to be outdated and expensive to update. Radar detector was so-so. Of course, this is just my opinion. We upgraded to the 9500's and a Max; that was the proper choice.

Yes you can. I've mounted my Dash Disk on Dash board of my 2003 VW Passat. I centered the disk on top front edge of the dash and use the mount "upside down". (opposite of whats shown)This lets the GPS hang in the middle of the center vents and makes for a somewhat unobstructed view of the wind shield. (and I still get enough A/C through the vents) I used denatured alcohol to pre-clean the dash before sticking the double sided tape to it. After 6 months of Southern California Sun and Heat, the Disk is still super solid. I hope this helps!

If this is the Garmin GPS V. The GPS should have come with the drivers. I do have the drivers and they are outdated and do not work. I have contacted Garmin for support and there are no updates.

Dear Customer,For toyota, it is better that you buy a DVD player that specially made for the model. This device will be more suitable for common VW model.

Doubt it, this item didn't work on my 2015 VW Passat and I assume the electronics are similar.

Yes for vw. You have to be able to insert an sd card into your mac to update. Otherwise just a launchusa website.

Abdullah, if you have double DIN space available, then you can use it. This unit is good other than GPS. MAP is old. I could not find upgraded GPS map any where.

Try calling garman first and see if they will replace the one you have now. I did. I had to send old one back first, they then sent me a new one. As far as this one working with your gps, im not sure

I am shopping for my 1st GPS. TomTom 340TM is supposed to include free maps for the life of the device. How can they refuse to upgrade the maps on your refurb? slloyd1000@verizon.net

It should work on any regular car from 1996 to present after updating the software online. However, in order to update the software immediately after receiving the scanner I had to find an older computer with an older style serial port (so I could access the COM 1 assigned port) and, since the scanner comes only with a USB connection, I had to find a converter from a USB port to a nine-pin serial port. Someone with better programming skills should be able to designate one of the USB ports on their computer as a COM 1, then the USB connection would work. The scanner works great, but the update for the software is somewhat of a pain to do. I see no reason it would not work on a 2000 VW.

Download the software from the Garmin. It should automatically see your GPS and download what you need for an update.

Nope, sorry. Garmin's map updates are completely incompatible with the GPS unit in your car. Besides, if I'm not mistaken, most in-dash GPS units are manufactured by Alpine, Panasonic and the likes. Call your nearest BMW dealer or the BMW USA DVD helpline @ 1-888-NAVMAPS. Remember to update the operating software as well.

Thanks for telling me that. I haven't used the GPS much after that time. I think I need to read the manual when I have time. :)
