I’ve just bought a minty Golf colour concept MK3.5 cabriolet for £250 and its come fitted with that Sony head unit…. On the Mk4 (I have a V5) you can buy a genuine cubbyhole that sits into the CD player slot and don’t forget if you want the stereo to turn off using the ignition on VAG stuff then reverse the red and yellow on the adapter cable. Also another good mod is to remove all that horrible rubber coating off the switches etc.
HUGE MISTAKE IN YOUR VIDEO!!! For the Mk4's you need to "cross" the Yellow (BATTERY) and Red (IGNITION) cables if you're using the stock ISO cable harness (that's why they have those special joints so you can re-connect those 2 cables easily). The way you connected them, your stereo will reset (clock/etc.) each time you remove the key from the ignition because the ignition cable from the car is connected to the battery connector on the stereo.
Can elaborate on what you mean by cross? And the whole process generally. im having this issue at the moment and the radio doesnt always turn off when the car is off
@@mariosaliasi5563 In between the new wiring harness you have bullet connectors going from red to red and yellow to yellow - you need to pull them apart in the middle of the new harness (only the red and yellow connectors) and then fit the red connector to yellow connector and yellow connector to red connector to stop the settings being wiped out when you turn off the ignition. What this chap will find out is his clock and date settings and lots of other settings will be wiped off, his presets on his stations will be OK (usually) as on new models radio station presets will be saved to the flash memory on board the device, this is non applicable to him as he didn't connect the radio. This is a poor demo on how to fit an after market car stereo, keep searching ;-)
@@herrlip72 I know I'm a little late replying but you're absolutely right. 👍🏼 Had that very issue with an Alpine installed with the aftermarket ISO plug adapter, in my previous Audi TT 8n. The install shop only managed to resolve it after my 3rd visit. Thanks for this, I've been living with the belief that my car wasn't properly built... 🤣🤣
I was wondering how to connect up the CD autochanger to the new radio? Got a 2004 Volkswagen Passat with a new radio and I think whoever put in the new radio didn't connect the CD player. I was wondering if it was actually possible...
I prefer Double Din Touch scree. Head units. I have a Pioneer Double Din Head Unit from Amazon. I have installed GPS, steering controls, FM radio, and power via adapter cable.
1:55 Why does my Golf MK4 have only the lowest power supply connector? I tried plugging it with that one only, the radio works but no sound, how can I fix that?
What size is the engine in yours? I feel like you've stated this in a previous video but I can't remember. Also what would you day the ideal price to pay for one is/ideal engine size?
Mines a 1.9tdi pd150 (basically 150bhp) it was around £900 and is in pretty decent condition. Obviously the more you pay the better car you get! (in theory) but still can get a good one for around £1,000 - £1,500
Is that a Winchester House jumper I see? ahah local lad. helpful video btw, just about to fit a very similar sony stereo in my polo so should be almost exactly the same fitting method
is it possible to manually change bas and treble? is it possible to adjust balance front/rear and left/right? is it possible to chose folders and songs when using usb? is it possible to use shuffle? answer please.
I got Audi A3 I got same stereo sonny I fit in connection 2 plugs in like yours stereo got no power I don’t know why I checked before fit in stereo fine working what’s the problem is there any pin code or some things why my stereo no working in the car pls help ? My Audi A3 2005
I assume he's never going to sell the car by ditching the cd and radio.. I think people like things to work if they're there but fare play it's his car !
Before replacing the car radio, check if the speakers’ surround is ok. If it’s rotten and/or they don’t sound good, you need to recone or replace them (with original speakers). You should use aftermarket speakers only if you could connect them to an external amplifier. Otherwise, you would get a bad sound.
In my one it’s not fitting in I don’t know if I’m being thick but lool I tried to push it in without the plate first like like under 1/4 was still exposed outside the car din
Sup man! It’s Jonny here in so cal... At 0:50 you mentioned we need to use a flat head and keys for the oem stereo lmao where can I get that? Will my local auto part store have that in stock?
Quick question! I’m getting my first car soon, and for free! It’s from my Nan and she’s giving it to me because she doesn’t need it anymore. However it’s a Peugeot 106 and the stereo unit is...bad. Would a Sony DSX-a212ui fit in it?
No DAB tuner or is it that bad I head about it in UK? Here in US & Canada we have HD Radio which isn't great but not available in many areas & SiriusXM Satellite Radio which works from Middle of Mexico though Northern Canada & covers partial Alaska & Hawaii also. Sound quality is worse than HD Radio on it though.
I enjoyed your video but I need some help please. I have a Volkswagen Golf Avantgard Cabriolet 1997 2.0 litre. As you can imagine the stereo is ancient. It has a CD changer in the back, but my question is, can I get a modern stereo, (usb/bluetooth), that can also control the cd changer?
I have just bought this stereo for the inside of the boat as it has Bluetooth. I have had lots of speakers outside on the deck and the wires always rust with the seawater ! so I thought brilliant get a Bluetooth speaker or two if it will take it and then I can take them in and out of the cabin when not in use So avoid having to connect it up to wiring and replacing lots of speakers all the time although they are supposed to be waterproof and are in a recess but they still Rot, has anybody ever tried Bluetooth speakers with this particular stereo ?
I have just bought a sony mex-n4200bt on ebay but realise the seller didnt have the original power cables in. My car is a fiat grande punto 2007, does anyone know if I can just get a stereo fit set on ebay and don’t need to original power cables from sony?
I’m trying to put this touch screen radio into my car but when I go to power it on the screen flickers blue with some white lines thru it I was wondering if it’s possible that me ground wire isn’t strong enough?
I believe it is still in demo mode, i am not so sure, I installed my stereo like 2 years. You have to turn your key in the ignition without starting your engine. After that, hold the source button until on the display you will see the time, after that you can go into the settings and you will have a lot more options like setting the caution alarm off, that 3 times beeping that start when you turn off the engine. I hope this can help you, but if not, maybe we can find another solution to fix your problem,
@@shitsheet7277 it wont work.. you cant swtich any cables because its just one jack that delivers all the power and its made so you can plug it in only one specific way.. and if the car is older lets say 1995 then it wont deliver any power to the stereo when key is out so the stereo wont remember its settings ..
Just ordered some parts for the golf! Cannot wait for it to be delivered!! Can you guess what it is?

Hahahahha what if your mam needs a lift she wants to listen to classical fm 😂😂
trust me, you'll want radio when your phone is doing your head in and your usb is still in the house.
Mikey Allberry Extremely true, he should of plugged it in, would of taken 5 seconds.
mattdavies55 quicker than hiding it
Ordered the shit off ebay it came and now the radio dont work i got same stereo as him
You should link the parts you buy in the description
costs a little extra for extra lead if you got steering wheel controller function
Steering wheel and quick release,fender swap,coilovers,exhaust and wheels and this car is done😍
liked just cause u did magic throwing the keys out of the frame and it reappeared!
nice install. You worked it out so that all you needed were the removal bits that were 4 quid
I want the batman radio with the bat signal in case of sinister LOL 😁

Hello bro ,you should change those wires because your sony doesnt start where you left after turn off. The wires to bes change are red and yellow.

What I would like to know is how the original jacks just plug and play to an aftermarket radio that's what I want to know
Where did you get that adaptor plate?
Do you know if this stereo would fit in my 2003 mk6 Ford Fiesta?
Sony very best ❤️🔝
Nice video and very clear. Thanks.
Would this be the same method for vw polo ?
You should install 10.1 joying or pumpkin the best ever.
is it possible to adapt these aftermarket radios for shortwave ? very good video!!
Great video. What's the name of the back ground song?
Histoire can il save thé setting , cuz every single time I have to go through the configuration

Those cables you've pushed to the back are going to make a racket. You should maybe have covered them in cloth tape first.
Did you first have to buy the 'metal case'/adapter to place the radio in?
It's included with the radio. Most of the time
You changed bmw e46 to vw golf... :(
Finally a quality video. Great job 👌👌
