Just curious if anyone out there with a D3 has installed the system in a VV MkV GTI / Jetta / R32? Looking for tips and answers concerning the auto dimming (night mode) hookup in our cars.

I purchased one of these for my MkV: PAC Pacific Accessory Corporation C2R-VW
Has all the connections you'll need and very easy to install...

I did it using the hardware here... http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic. ... =wolfsburg
...and had very good luck. My steering wheel controls are not working, but I am fairly certain that the connector came out when I was mounting the unit in the dash. The company the OP recommends in the thread above was very easy to deal with and i recommend them.
EDIT: If you didn't know, do NOT turn the ignition on with the airbag sensor wire disconnected or you will be making a trip to the dealer to reset codes. There's a good how-to on vwvortex for dash disassembly.
