Thanks JPC,
At least i know now what i need to look for.

The hunt begins :D

JPC:
you can get the cable from kufatec for about 45 quid and then that armrest piece in the ebay add is well priced for a new in stock unit.

Your looking at 140+ from VW! )

mortygttdi:
The armrest unit from VW is £210 without the harness or device cable,  the device cable from VW is nearly £40, 

I use partsdealer123 now again and they are usually good but sometime can send damaged units out so if they do just tell them and they will swap it without question...they do try it on with damaged units.

VW actually do do a retro hraness so you can keep the aux if you have that already.

Cheers

Darren

I want to do the same switch. How do you remove the iPod armrest? I can't seem to find any information on how to remove it.

mikebgti:
I am wanting to fit the arm rest MDI . I have the AUX in socket in the arm rest just want to make sure i buy the right parts.

I am going to buy the arm rest MDI from parts123 on the bay but can anybody confirm what other lead i need .
 
Morty do you know the part No for the cable that lets you keep the AUX in from VW.
