After a lot of reading and thread searching I'm still none the wiser. Am I right in thinking it's near on impossible to get a Factory VW head unit and just do a simple swap? I currently have the stock DAB unit. Cheers Crispy

Hi all, Was wondering if anyone could shed any light, does a t6 radio 66 reg, fit into a 2014 t5.1. I did ask at local dealership, they did say you can’t? Is there and company’s out there that this can be done. Also do you need an additional module for phone/ Bluetooth.
