Fitting wouldn't be too difficult thought I suspect radio/tv functions (frequencies) won't work in UK?  Looks packed default of cool goodies though! :wink:

i have one of these and had 1 in my last golf too. Not really had the problem apart from it crashing every couple of months. Its straight forward to fit and all the other wires are on a seperate connecter so you dont need to connect them to the back of the unit. Its plug and play so no messing around with wires it just plugs straight in. You can use tv if u buy a digital tuner for about £30 but i dont see the need. There a great bit of kit for the money, you will need a fakra - areal adapter, these are around £10

yep sat nav is spot on. Sound quality is a bit of a tricky one, its not brilliant if im honest and i did notice it wasnt as clear as the rcd500 but it does have more bass. Something else thats bothering me is when youve got your music on low volume the bass doesnt seem to be as quiet as the vocals if you get me? but when you turn it right up the bass is a bit lacking, probably me just being picky but you cant expect everything for that price. Im sure my last one wasnt like that so mabie theres a slight problem with the version i have. I would of thought so yes as there is a can-bus converter, i only have the midline so cant gaurantee it im afraid, bluetooth works fine also.
