Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Best option to get MIB2 into a 2013 Mk7

    So almost 10 years old now and my 2013 GTI Mk7 is still a great car. Especially in todays market I have no desire to replace it but if i did it would just be a MK7.5.

    The one thing thats dating my car though is a lack of Car Play and Android Auto.

    I've seen MIB2.5 kits for sale for close to $3000 (which seems excessive) - dont really want to spend that much.

    Are there similar kits or options available to get the MIB2 infotainment system? Something that I can DIY as well would be preferred.

      Im not against that at all but I had the impression that aftermarket wouldnt really work with the cars internal systems. Driving modes, automatic functions (wipers, headlights, etc).

      I could be way off base but thats all stuff i dont want to lose.

        Older model may not support it in either hardware or software

                  MIB2/MIB2.5 is the best option.
                  Not the cheapest, but the best.
                  Send me a PM I can point you in the right direction.
