MK5 Radio swap wiring help

Featured Replies

Hi, trying to fit a new radio into my polo and ran into an issue with sockets, none of the plugs fit and I’ve looked everywhere and can’t seem to find an adaptor for it. I’ve linked a photo of the socket on the radio I’m trying to install (6C0919603, factory Volkswagen radio not aftermarket) and the old radio : https://imgur.com/gallery/xVGbxQK

can I actually get some sort of adaptor for this or is it a case of rewiring everything? Thanks

First Welcome to the Forum.

 

Looking at the pictures, the replacement you are trying to fit is totally not compatable with your car, as it uses a remotely mounted radio unit whereas your original is a self-contained unit.

 

You state you have a MK5 but can you confirm the year?  as on here a MK5 is 2000~2002 as that radio screen you are trying to fit is for the 6C or a MK9 (2014/17) on here
