ScoscheVW03B Compatible with Select 2002 and up Volkswagen Power/Speaker Connector / Wire Harness for Aftermarket Stereo Installation with Color Coded Wires

Got this for my Mercedes Sprinter work truck. Added a new stereo and didn't want to cut into any factory wiring. This harness includes every single wire that could possibly be attached, in fact way more wires then there were on my factory harness which is fantastic because no matter what it'll have what you need. I just tore out all the wires I didn't need so I didn't have to tape them up or have them in the way. Either way worked out great

Worked great 2002 vw jetta

Worked as intended. Plug & play for my Z4 . No issues. I would buy again !

I bought this for use in my B5.5 2004 VW Passat GLS. I was replacing the factory radio with an aftermarket unit. The Scoche adapter harness clipped right in to the factory harness and I had no problem connecting everything. The literature that comes with the adapter was very helpful, and the pre attached connectors were much appreciated and a very nice touch. Everything worked as intended … except the new stereo would not turn off when the car was turned off. We opened and closed the doors and locked the car and waited a few minutes, but the unit remained on. I looked around online and it seems that this is a common problem. The solution seems to be to run an entirely new cable from the fuse box, or to buy a harness with a computer board attached. I bought theMetra XSVI-9003-NAV Non-Amplified Non-OnStar Harness to Retain Accessory Power, 8.00in. x 3.15in. x 2.40in.On Amazon and the problem is fixed. It’s only $50-something and we’ll worth the investment.

Very nice product! All wires match expect for the three brown wires but they aren’t needed (unless you do need them) but my after market radio didn’t need them, make sure to use electric tape and not normal tape! Do research if you aren’t sure about something and be safe when connecting! Would recommend 10/10

I ordered for my daughters 2005 mini cooper s, I have installed many stereos in my life so i have experience. First off if there is needed information about the car such as the car has an HK sound system factory you need this or that, or do you need steering wheel control wiring so on and so forth. Now the radio I have cant be installed and I have a useless wiring harness in my bench stock. If you are messing with a euro car I suggest you go to crutchfield or some other car audio company to ensure you get the right stuff.

Here we go again...I bought a sweet Passat wagon with a stock cd player. Don't get me wrong the preamp and everything sounded great, but it did not have an Auxiliary input, and as we all know it is 2012 an CDs are just not cutting it anymore. I purchased a new deck through Crutchfield and was ready to install it and listen to those sweet sweet MP3s.Those German's know how to discourage you from altering their vehicles. I came to find that I needed this special attachment. As I searched throughout the internet, the solution was buying a similar connector that cost ~$100. I was not ready to drop that much more money on this endeavor. I came across this alternative and read that the only problem is that in order for the new deck to power on and off with the car I would have to rewire something or other to the battery and the ellipses started to roll...and the eyes started to roll to the back of my head...and I decided whatever.After I got the part, it was very easy to install, just a few color coded wire connections and then plug the connector into Volkswagen's connector and abracadabra I was listening to some lovely MP3s.I still have to Manually power on and off my new deck, but it is definitely not as bad as dropping a lot more money than I have.

It does wire up nicely, and works with the factory speakers perfectly. No modification necessary. There is one catch, though. I have a MK5 2006 Jetta, and there is no ignition power source on this harness, since the OEM stereo is turned on with logic from the CAN-BUS. So, the stereo will not turn off when you first install it and plug this in. You will have to cut the ign source power wire, and wire it to another source. I found one in the fusebox and used a piggy-back fuse for it. Now it turns on and off with the key.
