Here is a link to a seller who has single and double ports! Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! $7.79 | For VW Golf 6 Jetta 5 MK5 Scirocco 2006 - 2012 Car USB Charger PD Quick Charge QC3.0 Auto Phone Charging Adapter Button a.aliexpress.com/_mML8gc0
Hi friend, excellent work!! Congratulations. A question, what are the connector KITs you bought them from, or what is the product code and does it include the cables? Regards.
Thank you so much! And yep it does come with the wires you need. I linked the items in the description and it is all plug and play no need for soldering or cutting of any wires. Basically just runs an extension from the 12v port.
If I add these usb will it automatically connect to my stereo as my pioneer sphda120 has a usb connection but I’m not sure if this terminal is linked to the stereo terminal as some cars have an aux cable there , do you know if I was to put USB connector like you have will it enable a USB connection for my stereo ?
This is a great question! So since you already have an after market head unit you won’t be able to wire your aux down to that port. You can just do the charge ports. However if you do have aux coming from the Pioneer head unit you can buy the conversion from “ AUX to female USB-a “ a.aliexpress.com/_mMjLp4o after that plug this switch a.aliexpress.com/_mPBWHta into the factory blank and it should work as your AUX.
For power? No it’s all plug and play from the factory male end connector. However if your asking for my opinion on the consistent power supply my only thought would be to find the fuse/fuse wire that powers the 12v socket and then add some sort of relay similar to how they power Amps. Hopefully that helps as much as possible sorry I couldn’t provide any more information!
If you purchase a new steering wheel, in which case I installed a GLI steering wheel with MFSW. Same goes for later models. Easy enough for a short and not a whole video.
Hello, I installed the same USB ports on my Golf 4 car, but even though the car is not running, the USB port lights are on and never turn off and it continues to charge the phone. What could be the reason for this?
Hello friend I'm not too sure about the mk4 as I do not have the car. However I know that similar plugs on the Mk6 platform the RED U shaped wire must be cut/split for this not to occur. I wouldn't recommend you cut yours maybe contact the MFR/Seller for help. Sorry IDK if that helps!
