I doubt its that simple, some cars use a seperate disc drive and satellite antena working with the head unit. Maybe yours is all in one. doubt it though

It should be a straight swap. But you may need to add additional wires for the road speed signal. I've swapped a Delta unit from a 2003 Passat with an OE MFD that I bought on eBay - it works perfectly. As you 2005 may have full CAN support it could easily be a straight swap with no additional wiring.

Hi Crosstown,

Just bought a passat without a owners manual. Can you tell me what the AS or Mix keys do on the Radio,

Thanks

"Mix" is to shuffle songs on your CD, and press and hold "AS" to search and store the 6 strongest radio signals.
