Head unit

[Sunny43.5]

I had a look at a T6 and it seems VW changed the dash but not the actual opening for the radio unit . Its the same size and shape as the T5.1 from 2010 onwards so there are heaps of different models available from various suppliers VW used the same shape head unit in Golfs Polos Boras and Tiguans

Thanks very much Sunny. Will look into it. Thanks again.

Hey Sunny, that's what I thought going by photos and stuff- thanks heaps for clarifying!

Do you know if the plastic shroud on the T6 just clips in? And then it's as per the other thread where the four bolts hold it in?

Now that I don't know as I would need to be let loose with a hammer and screw driver LOL . I would imagine there would be similarities with the earlier one by trial and error see if there is a top section and then check for the release of the surrounding facia usually several clips . I use a plastic trim removal tool as it removes the risk of scratching or marking the trims .

But it would be the same for a 5.2?

There are only 3 variations from 2004 to now . T5 2004 to 2010 / T5.1 2010 to late 2015 / T6 late 2015 to present , what do you mean by T5.2 ? If there is a T5.2 then it will be the same as T5.1 in the shape of the head unit at least , and as I have seen same for T6 . The early T5 had a pure rectangular shape . Now in the same T5 model there may have been a unique head unit that was much wider than all the others due to inclusion of extra features . Don't quote me on that last one but I do recall some discussion years ago in relation to that .

That's what I thought!
Over on a UK forum what we call a 5.1 they call a 5.2.
Their 5.1 runs 06 - 10 (by memory)
Very confusing.
