Just installed the jawn, shipping was pretty quick at 10 days and the unit works great. I do wish I purchased the one with a usb in the rear but that’s just a little thing. Overall 10/10 would recommend. Thanks Matt
After putting in the RCD330 and the rear view camera I have to say this was a good choice. I have had the headunit and the camera for months. Great video, it was enough to convince me that I am too lazy to do it myself. So I had it installed a week ago. I very quickly decided that it needed a subwoofer but I didn't want to spend a fortune and I just want a nice full sound, not the crazy head pounding bass that rattles everything within 500 yds. Add a 10in powered subwoofer, Rockford Fosgate. 309 at Crutchfield, turned out to be the perfect addition to the system. Now sound is fantastic with good recordings. Thanks again Matt.
@@turnickup from what I know there’s not. You need a line converter… basically picking up the signal from the rear speakers. Look up a LC2i. Maybe if @Lary will see this message is gonna help us both with figuring this out.
Thanks Matt - I just recently purchased an MK6 Jetta SE and was struggling to find which CarPlay radio I should buy. I just messaged the gentleman from China and hope to place an order soon. Keep up the great content!
I think these radio's are original spec and are removed from cars imported into China as I think they have an alternative they put in that suits their own country and language better. So as I understand it they should be OEM and brand new. This is not fact but what I think from things I've read.
Congrats on growing to 900! I’m certain you’ll be well over 100k in no time! 😁 And thanks for this upload, I’m looking for something to replace my current head unit. For whatever reason the voice command freezes the entire radio causing it to drain the battery. 😂💀💀💀 Going to look into this, thanks so much!
Hi, thx for your sharing, i hav just installed the RCD330 as well, the USB port that you showed at the end if this vid, the port, where may i find the kit and how to install?! i am so shocked and impressed by it, thx
Is your reverse camera OEM? I have the 2010 Golf R and want to upgrade my head unit to this but it needs to work with the steering wheel controls and the OEM camera. Does it all work perfectly?
You connect it to the back of the RCD330 and drop the USB down towards the gear stick. Remove the trim around the gear stick and lift it up. Pop up one of the squares and insert the new USB.
Hi Matt. Thank you for the very helpful video and info. The Chinese guy's eBay profile does not seem to be there anymore, as I clicked the link you provided and it says "this user was not found". Any idea where I can find him now? I would love to install this radio in my 2017 Volkswagen CC.
I have the same model on my Seat Leon MK2 (2011), same buttons, same dials, same USB, aux and SD ports. Previous owner had it installed but couldn't provide any technical information, aside from the fact that it was repurposed from a Golf 6. It even has the VW logo at startup. I was under the impression that this was OEM for VW vehicles, as in you could buy a VW from the dealer with this option installed. Anyway, to get to my question: am I right to assume that this unit does not have a dedicated jack input for a backup camera? and that you need to add the camera connectors to the bulk of connectors that pugs into the back of this unit
Hi Matt I drive a 2013 VW Jetta TDI Highline Sedan fitted with a RCD340G OEM radio and an aftermarket PDC system installed. The problem I experience is the radio not allowing for the PDC and rear view camera to display at the same time because both make use of the same channel. So I have to eliminate either the camera or PDC to display. Supposedly this happens because the PDC is not factory fitted. I suppose to make this work I need to install a factory fitted Pdc which cost a lot of money. Are you aware of some adapter or harness that might solve the problem or do you have any other recommendations?
Have you had any battery leakage problems I have a 13 gti and I’ve seen the rcd360 pro 3 radios on Amazon I’m not convinced have you had any problems with your radio
Hi,mate nice video,can u tell me how did u put an usb port down where is the shifter because i didnt like it up in the radio because didnt looks realy oem.Thanks !!
Matt when you installed the camera to the radio how’d you do the blue cable to hook up to the head unit? I’m kinda stumped with the quad lock sett up. Do I just remove the oem blue connector and plug the one that came with the kit. So close to getting it installed. Thanks for any help!
Did you have a problem with the camera opening when you start the car? it seems some VW GTIs have a sort of bulb check feature that sends signals to the bulbs to check circuit continuity....
Got mine at Best Buy. Free installation. $399. However, by the time I added back up camera, steering wheel sync, and VW sync I spent $1000. I feel it's worth it because their geek squad is good. I also added 2 years warranty do anything.
Hey bro.. i recently bought AndroidRadio.. so my car is 6R and it came with Back up cam...so afta installing the radio...(plug and play) the camera indicate that there is no Video Signal.. what could be the problem?
Bro can u help me with the red wire goes to the back of the head the one comes connected to the yellow video wire I don have any ide where to connect it please I have 2010 gti thank u .
Hello, can some tell me how to install the usb to the radio like this man for carplay ? Because i cant find any of it on yt. I can find how to install a usb but not to the radio for the apple carplay.
Can you use your phone while CarPlay is plugged in, like your actual phone, are you able to scroll through your phone and other things while plugged in
Nice video! I’d be curious to see the Reddit thread, do you mind linking it? Also, are there any head units which also include a CD player? Thanks in advance.
Here is the rcd330 subreddit www.reddit.com/r/RCD_330/ I couldn’t find the thread I was on that linked me to the ebay seller and no I dont think they sell any with cd players
How does music via bluetooth on your phone work with this? When you start the car or just ignition, does it start auto playing music via bluetooth? Also, can you switch songs with the steering wheel? Both very important to me, golf 7 has these features and I really like them.
Hey bro I already got a Volkswagen backup camera with the car if I get the system will this radio be compatible with the camera I already have or will if not work Cheers bro get back to me
what did u need to buy for the usb install behind the shifter? Can you link it for me because that would be so much better then plugging in the usb up top.🙂
Well i bought my Mk6 gti recently, it has a oem backup camera with an "Dynavin n7" stereo. But the vw emblem doesent flip when i put it in reverse :( any tips?
Does it effect the Bluetooth information on the clocks? For example I get a notification on my clocks when I get a phone call? Does that all stay the same? Thanks.

You got an increase in subscribers because you are real and honest about the VW you drive. Keep it up and you will continue to increase in numbers.
Might be true I also want to branch out to other video types too we will see how tht goes

Hi really appreciated the video! Can I ask you how did u put the usb port if the radio doesn't have a back usb port?
Thx for the info, not to many out there that you can understand
I'm Looking to order one of these for my TDI but the like to the sellers eBay store is non existent. Any shot you would be able to track that down??
How is the brightness at night? can it be controlled with the dimmer switch on the car's dashboard?
Hi Matt! How do you get the back emblem to tilt for the backup camera? Is there something else to install?
My car has auto parking and front and rear sensors , if I get the one with reverse camera
Will the sensors still show on the display and work?

You connect it to the back of the RCD330 and drop the USB down towards the gear stick. Remove the trim around the gear stick and lift it up. Pop up one of the squares and insert the new USB.

Just what I was looking for 👍
👌👌
What harness did you use I’m having the hardest time finding the right one!
Will my aftermarket AHD camera work with this unit?
It looks like a USB port on the newly installed unit. Can that USB input be used, instead of what you showed/use, lower on your console?
Have you had any battery leakage problems I have a 13 gti and I’ve seen the rcd360 pro 3 radios on Amazon I’m not convinced have you had any problems with your radio
so you had to get the new boot emblem rigth? or the stock one already comes with a camera in the back?
What model is that radio and do you have a video showing the camera installation?
Hi,mate nice video,can u tell me how did u put an usb port down where is the shifter because i didnt like it up in the radio because didnt looks realy oem.Thanks !!
Can you watch TH-cam on this and can I mirror it to the same thing as my I phone also how do you make it so the bottom usb port connects to the radio
How’s the phone sound quality on calls? I’m on the phone allot and need it to not be echoing. Some units echo using the factory mics
Nice video man. How did you connect the USB port to the head unit to work with CarPlay??
it comes with a cord that plugs into the rear of the head unit
@@Matt_Pie ok... i guess my shipment did not inckude that part of magic... did you opened extra components excpet the trim of console?

I’m having that problem right now except I’m trying to use my oem backup camera not an aftermarket one. If you solved that lmk
Great vid. Can i have libk for my Caddy 2011 model please
Sadly i went with an rcd330 and since i have the dynaudio sound system it would get staticky.
I also have the Dynaudio sound system and have no idea how we upgrade to an “OEM” CarPlay system 😫😭
You need to plug in your iPhone for CarPlay? Otherwise it wont work?
Did you have a problem with the camera opening when you start the car? it seems some VW GTIs have a sort of bulb check feature that sends signals to the bulbs to check circuit continuity....
Every start up the camera opens and closes. Yeah the car does a bulb check a lot of vws have indicators for if a bulb is out
are there any wireless carplay so i don't have to plug in ?
Yes, he sells a version with a wireless dongle
im planning on buying a 2006 TDI Jetta will this radio and B cam work?
Great video! I'm getting the same things for my MK6 GTI very soon. How's the sound quality and RVC quality?
Camera quality is alright not the best the sound quality is much better
Do you have an installation video?
Would this radio work in a 2014 Jetta sports wagon TDI?

I’m not sure you’ll have to ask in the forums
What do you mean by the radio overheating?
the processor inside the radio would thermal throttle and reduce the performance of car play (it would lag)
Hey I have a MK5 gti, will it work just the same ?
I believe so message the gentleman from china on ebay, he will know
Is your camera RGB ?
No
