    Best option to get MIB2 into a 2013 Mk7

    So almost 10 years old now and my 2013 GTI Mk7 is still a great car. Especially in todays market I have no desire to replace it but if i did it would just be a MK7.5.

    The one thing thats dating my car though is a lack of Car Play and Android Auto.

    I've seen MIB2.5 kits for sale for close to $3000 (which seems excessive) - dont really want to spend that much.

    Are there similar kits or options available to get the MIB2 infotainment system? Something that I can DIY as well would be preferred.

    Im not against that at all but I had the impression that aftermarket wouldnt really work with the cars internal systems. Driving modes, automatic functions (wipers, headlights, etc).

    I could be way off base but thats all stuff i dont want to lose.

    Older model may not support it in either hardware or software

    MIB2/MIB2.5 is the best option.
    Not the cheapest, but the best.
    Send me a PM I can point you in the right direction.
