Mk7 Golf upgrade to MIBII (Discover Pro with Carplay)

[kamold]

Happy to do the installation for you Don but its a bit of a drive, perhaps we could meet in Beechworth or something? (so I can visit Bridge Rd Brewery as well)

^^^ kamold: Sounds like a plan - But given the financial prerequisite's for a sale, let's not hold our breath until the $AUD exchange rate reverses, and/or the price of the units drop substantially!

Don - Some homework for you. Please find out what is involved in a factory fitted MY16 AU delivered MIB II to get it to work in say your car? Component Protection (a given), but is activation of maps required? If so what is the local price for this?

hahahaha Mr VW Central - you have made my day!!!

The last person to give me homework was my digital electronics professor - long ago in the last century! But alas, I vowed when I completed those absolutely useless post graduate studies that I would never again "do homework" ! Life's way too short to spend quality family time "doing homework"

Besides -With the resources available at VW Central - I would have thought that the task would have been easily and appropriately completed by one of the very able staff members there

No problems. The answer is component protection is needed to be removed and the activation is tied to the VIN of the car. Therefore, once replaced in another vehicle the cost of activation needs to be included too.

To the best of my knowledge, mine was the first of these to be done in Australia and I have no regrets whatsoever.

I follow people who are all over the road and sit at the lights watching drivers around me with mobile in hand sending SMS, doing god knows what else and just waiting for the day that they fail to notice the constabulary beside them and risking a 4 pointer and $400+. No need to even think about touching the phone.

For my spend, the 8" screen, carplay, maps, active traffic, voice control and DAB+ were worth every cent. All this before the additional functionality with music etc. Speed cams in and enabled.

Dean and his team saw this through from beginning to end and whist I read of MIB II glitches in some new cars, mine is perfect.

Thanks VW Central.

Are you talking about if you purchase an MIB II from VGA and price up the control unit, screen, air vent, component protection & map activation?

Hey VW Central,
I guess I am, price for all parts, ready for installation/upgrade. I'm quite capable to do the install.
Cheers, Tim

Mate I also have this unit as well. Quite happy with it as well. The maps on these are far better. I worked with VW Central recently to get the latest ones installed. Love the screen and quality of the 8 inch display leaves my old one for dead.
