Oem camera retrofit kit available for 2012 passat?

1gunther1 · Dec 17, 2012

There are a number of threads on the back-up camera but I do not see one that has/gives OEM part numbers. Is there such a kit that uses OEM parts? If so can I get the part numbers?

I have the camera on my 2013 and would really like to add it to the 2012.

Thanks!

Agreed. I bought this one and it works great. Easy install ~1 hour.

How do you know if you have the 26-pin input? I've got a Spring 2012 vintage Passat SE with 6MT.

Edit: Found the answer. RCD-510 for 2012 Passats don't have the 26 pin input. Now I have to decide if I want to find one with video input and buy the camera. Gettin' pricey, but I'd like to not run over my son accidently.

I thought (and I'd be happy if I was wrong) that you had to upgrade to at least the RNS-315...

I'm also interested in this kit and looking for some feed back from those that did this installation.
