I have a Parrot CK3100 already installed in my 08 Jetta but I want to upgrade. Will this be as easy as plugging the new one into the old connections?

I don't have any experience in upgrading. I did install the MKi9000 myself using Youtube videos for accessing the trim of the vehicle. I recommend the wiring harness for your vehicle. If you already used this and it is the same harness recommended by Parrot for both models, then you should be good to go. It's the wiring that's the tricky bit so if you that you are 90% done. Note that the CK3100 has a display but the MKi9000 does not so you may miss your display. Going to a MKi9100 or 9200 model might be more for you. I'm happy with audio only menu navigation.

I was told it was but it didn't turn out to be the case with mine. I would suggest if you buy one have it installed by a pro.

If his current aftermarket stereo was put in correctly you shouldn't need anything. You can reuse the wiring harness and adapter for the new one.

I would say no for an upgrade. Unless your motor goes out or is making a lot of noise, it's probably not going to make a noticeable difference.

A junk yard...I didn't even bother though. I looked up a thread on an Audi forum and found which wires were power and ground..then I just used my old connector. All you have to do is move the wires in the connector. What type of car do you have? If you can tell me that I can help you a little better.

Just hardwired mine today. I bought a Cobra hardwire kit (they are universal), a Bussman BP/HHH fuse tap (both from Amazon) and a 2amp fuse from an auto parts store. Very easy. Hardest part is figuring out how to run the wire throughout your car so that it's out of sight. You may need to look up diagrams and photos of dashboard/panel removals. Not hard. Also, you need to find a fuse in your box that works only with the key in the ignition. Easy enough to test/research. Total cost of hardwiring this myself was less than $25. Quoted a price of $75 from a car audio place.

First you need to make sure your Jetta uses 315 MHz sensors but I just checked the Amazon "does it fit" option and it gave me the thumbs up for your 2008 Jetta

Yes, this will piggy back off of your radio so it is wired in directly. I used the wire harness that you can find on parrot's website and it was plug and play. As for the box maybe you are talking about the blue box that is the brains of the system it is not a large box and I just left it behind the the radio inside the dash.

Yes, that's what I put it in. Make sure to watch the youtube vid or get a manual, since it would be tricky to do it without knowing how ahead of time.

Yes they are super easy swap but don't expect too much unless you upgrade to a amplifier. They need more power than the factory radio

Installed this on my daughters 98 Jetta a few months ago. Worked well. I wouldn't imagine much of a difference between yours and hers by just 1 year, but you never know. If you do buy this, there is a halfway decent vid on youtube for the replacement procedure. Not hard at all. Hope this helps.

Yes, it should work. Since all connections are still the same with the exception new cabability automatic.

If you do not want to cut or puncture the factory wiring then you will need to buy a suitable harness which suits with the model of your vehicle and the model of the Parrot

It's just unplug old one and then plug in new one. All screws and connections are exactly the same as factory.
1614961
Yes, all you have to do is disconnect the old one and connect the new one. That's all.

NO, you have to use the ones you already have in the old one. we diagramed it then took out the fuses and unhooked the wires. and used the diagram to reattach everything to the new one. hope this helps

Since you have a 4 year old car your wiring should be in very good condition and therefore very likely you won't have to replace wires or connections. If I remember correctly, these speakers come with 3 options to pick from to mount onto your car's existing speaker mounts (holes). As you can see, the small tweeters aren't built into the speaker so you'll have to open up the area where your car's stock tweeters are located, and I'm betting that's a piece of plastic covering your tweeter that'll snap on and off with a little forceful tug, but be careful not to break it. The connections are very standard, one is thick and one is thin. Use your car's existing wires to connect to the speaker's input, then use the crossover wires that come with these speakers to connect the output of the speaker to the input of the tweeter. Connect the thick to thick and the thin to thin, that simple. If your car doesn't already have a place to mount the tweeters then this is where you'll have to get creative and make a place to mount them, but all these new cars i'm betting have their tweeters somewhere by the windshield and door. I tried looking at Kenwood's website for their installation diagram they used to have as PDF format but i think they took it down. I can't even find these speakers anymore. I bought them about 2 years ago. Had to get creative and make a place for my tweeters since i have a 1996 model. I like the investment I made on these speakers, not one regret.
