I just recently noticed thr voice button on the phone menu of the d3, I usually dial from my iPhone but for some reason I hit the button insted yesterday and the voice prints actually came over the speaker, it was actually really nice but I couldn't get it to duplicate again. I guess it was just a malfunction.. Oh well

Does your factory radio have sat built in as well as the cd changer?? Assuming nothing has changed u will probally use the same adapters I used in my b6 passat. The PAC c2rvw,which is the main harness that connects to the factory harness it also gives u the dimmer wire the back up wire and the 12v switched wire. You will not have to splice into the factory wiring at all. The swi-can, will covert the can signal that the car puts out when u use your steering wheel buttons.. The swi-ps is pioneer brand specific and will plug into the harness as well as the radio and lets u program the steerin

no prob! yeah it was a pain to get eveything stuffed in there, i think next time im in there to connect the rca's and run my wires for the amp and subs ill dremel away some of the stuff on the left hand side to make stuffing all those wires in a bit easier..

I havent installed it in my passat yet, still waiting for it to come in, we did however install it in my brothers 07 gti and the vss wire was not connected and it works fine...Im going to connect it in mine just for completness sake but to simplify things im going to get the following adapters so i dont have to splice into the car.. This should all be plug and play and allow me to keep my SWC's hopefully even get that damn phone button programmed..175$ for all 3 http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/PAC_C2R_VW.html http://enfigcarstereo.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/PAC_SWI_CAN.html

stan you have to carefully pry the trim from around the radio, i started buy pulling out the bottom right , it takes some force then it just pops out, almost felt like i broke it but didnt.. DO NOT!!! unplug the air bag light because you will get a CHECK AIRBAG LIGHT , you can take the whole airbag off light assembly off by pressing the 2 clips on the side.. the radio is secure by 4 t25 torx screws, those are the ones that look like stars..The harness is pretty tight back there so it may be a little difficult unplugging the harness... there was a write up on vwvortex.com but i cant seem

thanks for the quick reply! Ill prob post up my install when its all said and done Merry Xmas!

Hey does your phone button on the steering wheel work??? where did you get the dash kit, is it the same one that would be used in an 07 gti? Thanks Rob

Hey im wondering the same thing, im about to put the d3 in my 08 passat.... i know someone on vortex successfully installed on of those parrot bluetooth kits and the phone button on the steering wheel is now functional... Im pretty hopeful that we can get it to work as long as u get the steering wheel controls all wired up correctly
