The 6th Annual eurothon is behind us. This event is all about a good time, seeing friends that you haven't seen since last season and catching up. There were the usual People's Choice Awards and the Dr. Ferdinand Porsche PROPER Award going to "Cosmic Bunny" Ivan.
Empire City Raceway and Casino played host to some of the sickest euros from the area and beyond. We're already lined up for 2010. Hope to see you there!

- Reception is good, but some cars may need a dual fakra to single din adapter.
- volume for radio is louder than other modes. need to remember to turn down the volume when changing to radio mode.
- no "Audio" menu in MFD

2. Navigation
Image

Image


- choice of Tom Tom, Route 66, or IGo8
- loads from SD card in GPS Card slot
- software is up to you, can download updates, etc.
- comes with GPS antenna
- so far IGo8 works great. I even have all the latest maps. GPS trip information etc. is a bonus.
- there is no Navigation menu in the MFD.
- you can listen to your other audio/video sources while you're in navigation mode. The nav button can toggle you back and forth between the navigation screen and audio/video source screen.

3. CD-C (CD Changer)
Image

- uses OEM VW changer cable that is connected to your harness.
- OEM VW changer cable can be hooked up to OEM 6-disc external cd changer, OEM iPOD adapter, Phatnoise Phatbox/Kenwood Music Keg
- works like OEM cd changer controls only using the touchscreen.
- Phatbox/Music Keg works with this headunit and is a big PLUS!
- unfortunately no music text
- no "Audio" menu in MFD

4. iPod
Image

- connects to the front of headunit with supplied iPod cable.
- able to mimic menu system shown on iPod
- able to display music text
- would have been better if they had a connection for this from the back of the unit as well
- no "Audio" menu in MFD

5. Bluetooth

Image



- very easy to get working and pair with phone
- can view directory of phone numbers from your phone.
- no "phone" display in the MFD
- phone button on steering wheel works to answer calls, and place calls when number is selected
- call quality seems good, adequate

6. DVD
Image


- Picture resolution is great!
- very easy to use
- memory playback for last point on DVD
- slight hiss on volume levels up to level 5 when parked, not an issue while driving.
- uses the dvd/cd slot at the top of the unit
- your basic multimedia based on disc player

7. SD Card slot

Image

- not much to explain, load and browse folders
- plays MP3, DivX, JPG, etc. you get the idea, it does a lot.
- shows file names, don't remember if it shows ID3 tags. (i think it might)
- officially supports up to 2GB SD (non SDHC), but also supports 4GB SD (non SDHC).

8. TV

That's not the oem nav though it's 500bucks from what I've seen I tex except I can't find anyone selling it. It's a aftermarket china special which intact looks and works lovely! Plus it's 1000$ cheaper
