How to replace the original radio of a Volkswagen Golf MK5

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 5, Golf 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Car stereo

In this video, we will see how to change the original radio of a Volkswagen Golf MK5 with a Custom Fit Android with navigation and Bluetooth. We start by removing the cover on the top of the dashboard, so that we can move the part that contains the air vents and remove the frame covering the front of the radio. This way, we can access the four screws that secure the radio; unscrew them and remove it, disconnect the electrical connectors at the back and replace it with the device we have chosen from the countless models available in e-commerce stores.
