Key Features & Specifications

Crucial Installation & Anti-Theft Note: This is a factory original stock component that contains active Volkswagen Component Protection software protocols. Unless you are purchasing an explicitly modified "unlocked" unit, this module will lock up and drop audio output immediately when plugged into a new VIN. To finalize the installation, you must bring the vehicle to a certified technician or dealership running active ODIS (Offboard Diagnostic Information System) online servers to match the component to your chassis, or have it manually bypassed using VCDS/OBDeleven coding protocols if your vehicle features high-tier optional audio systems like Fender.
