carplay stero with parking sensor display

Post by spencerstreet »

HI
I'm looking to get a carplay stero fitted into my car and i was wondering which model would be suitable as when i reverse the parking sensor display is available to see on the existing stereo, will i have to buy something more expensive to still have this displayed? If there is anyone who has fitted a carplay stereo in their car how was the process and how much did it cost? Thanks in advance!

edit: i have a 2013 match edition 1.2 polo

Hello,

I have bought the following I have it fitted to my car and have fitted them to my fleet at work which ranges from golfs, polos and transporters and everyone loves them, from what I can work out they appear genuine and work spot on.

I have genuine park pilot and it works great

I agree. Get something like an RCD330G (and do some research on which ones are suitable and genuine, there seem to be some differences among them).

i believe the RCD330 range will work with any VW car provided its made between 2009 - 2014

another good place (and sometimes cheaper) would be to check Aliexpress

EDIT: Theres some good information on my post here about the RCD330 viewtopic.php?f=56&t=71019&p=531983

Thanks for the help, i ordered that unit and im having a bit of trouble fitting it, not sure what to do with these wires,Image
Image

do i need an adaptor and if so which one? also i think the black tip wire is for the aux connection, if im correct i wont need this, is it safe to just tuck this behind the stereo or should i put electrical tape over it?

Also when i put it in reverse gear it defaults to the rear view camera and then i select the parking pilot option, is it possible to default to parking pilot when i put it in reverse?

also just want to say a huge thank to everyone for helping me out with this!

You need a two into one fakra adapter. The black is the DAB antenna. This radio doesn’t have DAB so leave that disconnected

sorry for late reply, I have been exceptionally busy work wise, yeah I have the park pilot on by default it is all in the settings menu.
