OTH,

can you please show a pic of the Kenwood in situ.   I was thinking of buying the IPOD link for the centre armrest but could be tempted by an aftermarket headunit.  Excuse my ignorance but what is a canbus adaptor?

Will take some pics later but there are some pics on this thread here http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/thread/681955.aspx

In simple terms most of the electrical items on the golf have a controller that sits on a central bus - Controller Area Network Bus.  Instead of hard wired connections to each other they send signals.  Anyway, the CAN-Bus adaptor should allow me to use the steering wheel controls with the DDX-6029.  Hope this helps

This is the unit on showing the track title from the iPod.  Unfortunately, it can only display track title, and not artist.  Also, I have it so it powers out slightly to an angle


This is off, when it powers back into the flat position
