 justa quick query will this fit my golf mk4 hes written out of a golf mk5 on it but it looks so similar to the gold mk4 dash cd palyers, i think i remeber correctly the connector on mine was the green yellow blue block or something like that but this is different

hmmm stick it back on ebay and get your money back lol

sorry mate electronics is not my strong point; not sure if you could make some sort of adapter  :undecided: or if you're feeling brave try and wire the wires into the MKIV connector.  you need a wiring diagram though to ensure its wired correctly;
