Hi Beefy
I was looking into this mod a while ago but couldn't find out if the install would actually work on the Golf or not so didn't go any further with it.
I've got the phone prep in my car so kept hoping VW would release some new cradles. I found a link to some German VW pages that showed some new cradles, including one for my phone, but I haven't confirmed the availability with my local dealer.
Anyway, I decided to go with the Bluetooth after reading your successful install and placed my order. One question though, did you have to do anything with VAG-COM as on the Octavia site it mentions getting it coded.
Also would this work without MFSW? I've got MFSW on my car but a friend hasn't and I'm sure he'll want it done after I've done mine!
