G'day everyone,

I figured this was the closest matching sub-forum for the question.

Have any of you installed a dashcam into a MY17 7.5 or a MY18 (models with the Discover Pro Gen 2 infotainment system and digital dashboard)?

I removed mine from my Passat prior to trade in and went back to Autobarn to have it installed in the Arteon and they mentioned that they needed something called a CAN-bus to wire it up etc. otherwise wiring it into the battery throws up error codes and other **** (according to the fitter at Autobarn).

Mostly, I'm just paranoid about it, having just dropped a rather large sum on driving it off the showroom floor (and having a minor argument to have them fix some scratches on the fascia that occurred prior to purchasing) and was hoping that one of you had installed a dashcam into a VW with the same interior systems as the Arteon (the Passat and Golf can both be optional with identical components).

Kind regards,
Paul
