Congrats on growing to 900! I’m certain you’ll be well over 100k in no time! 😁 And thanks for this upload, I’m looking for something to replace my current head unit. For whatever reason the voice command freezes the entire radio causing it to drain the battery. 😂💀💀💀 Going to look into this, thanks so much!

After putting in the RCD330 and the rear view camera I have to say this was a good choice. I have had the headunit and the camera for months. Great video, it was enough to convince me that I am too lazy to do it myself. So I had it installed a week ago. I very quickly decided that it needed a subwoofer but I didn't want to spend a fortune and I just want a nice full sound, not the crazy head pounding bass that rattles everything within 500 yds. Add a 10in powered subwoofer, Rockford Fosgate. 309 at Crutchfield, turned out to be the perfect addition to the system. Now sound is fantastic with good recordings. Thanks again Matt.

Hi really appreciated the video! Can I ask you how did u put the usb port if the radio doesn't have a back usb port?

Hi Matt I drive a 2013 VW Jetta TDI Highline Sedan fitted with a RCD340G OEM radio and an aftermarket PDC system installed. The problem I experience is the radio not allowing for the PDC and rear view camera to display at the same time because both make use of the same channel. So I have to eliminate either the camera or PDC to display. Supposedly this happens because the PDC is not factory fitted. I suppose to make this work I need to install a factory fitted Pdc which cost a lot of money. Are you aware of some adapter or harness that might solve the problem or do you have any other recommendations?

How does music via bluetooth on your phone work with this? When you start the car or just ignition, does it start auto playing music via bluetooth? Also, can you switch songs with the steering wheel? Both very important to me, golf 7 has these features and I really like them.

Is your reverse camera OEM? I have the 2010 Golf R and want to upgrade my head unit to this but it needs to work with the steering wheel controls and the OEM camera. Does it all work perfectly?

How is the brightness at night? can it be controlled with the dimmer switch on the car's dashboard?

I have the same model on my Seat Leon MK2 (2011), same buttons, same dials, same USB, aux and SD ports. Previous owner had it installed but couldn't provide any technical information, aside from the fact that it was repurposed from a Golf 6. It even has the VW logo at startup. I was under the impression that this was OEM for VW vehicles, as in you could buy a VW from the dealer with this option installed. Anyway, to get to my question: am I right to assume that this unit does not have a dedicated jack input for a backup camera? and that you need to add the camera connectors to the bulk of connectors that pugs into the back of this unit

Hi,mate nice video,can u tell me how did u put an usb port down where is the shifter because i didnt like it up in the radio because didnt looks realy oem.Thanks !!

Hello, can some tell me how to install the usb to the radio like this man for carplay ? Because i cant find any of it on yt. I can find how to install a usb but not to the radio for the apple carplay.

Bro can u help me with the red wire goes to the back of the head the one comes connected to the yellow video wire I don have any ide where to connect it please I have 2010 gti thank u .

How’s the phone sound quality on calls? I’m on the phone allot and need it to not be echoing. Some units echo using the factory mics

so you had to get the new boot emblem rigth? or the stock one already comes with a camera in the back?

It looks like a USB port on the newly installed unit. Can that USB input be used, instead of what you showed/use, lower on your console?

Yet again, someone making VW cars better than VW could in the first place lol

What model is that radio and do you have a video showing the camera installation?

Have you had any battery leakage problems I have a 13 gti and I’ve seen the rcd360 pro 3 radios on Amazon I’m not convinced have you had any problems with your radio

I think these radio's are original spec and are removed from cars imported into China as I think they have an alternative they put in that suits their own country and language better. So as I understand it they should be OEM and brand new. This is not fact but what I think from things I've read.
