MIB1 to MIB2 Upgrade

I suspect the free option for dealing with the missing stuff that @Chillout referred to above is covered in this... sister project to the high one (no doubt I'll be told if I'm wrong 
):

):Satnav fault code in OBD11
Probably the right decision. I did live with my second one for a couple of months till I got rid of it. You still be the central Obdeleven system not handling it correctly. The only thing I'd say is scan, clear, reboot, scan, clear reboot etc... a few times. Full power down after 20 minutes...

wow, found the 874 unit for like £300 - £350. Spending £1000, why didn't you just contact East Yorkshire Retrofits, it's sub £900 complete with 8" screen and CP removed.

Hey guys. Im pretty new in the forum and having my first Seat for a month now. Im interested in upgrading from MIB1 5.8" to MIB2 mainly for the AppleCarPlay with is something I want a lot as a feature.
I've been reading a lot for these upgrades but still have few questions. The part number of my system is 5F0035846A with 5.8" display. Is the display only a display and the main system is in the glovebox or it's not only a display? I mean, can i just replace the system in the glovebox or I will have to replace both?

hi,
Do you have a 1 DIN unit in the glovebox? If so the screen is just a screen.
The Glovebox unit are the "brain" and what you would need to replace in order to get the new functionality.
MIB2 Headunit (glovebox) and MIB1 output different resolution, meaning you can't use MIB2 (6.5" / 8") screen on MIB1 unit and vice versa.
So, you'll have to replace both screen and glovebox unit, for apple carplay to work you'll also need to replace the USB port.
Actually mine should be 6.5" display. It's not the smallest one neither the biggest one (8"). And yes, i have a 1din unit in my glovebox. So if i find a headunit for the glovebox that is MIB2 i should be able to replace only this module, not needing the display. Can you advise me the part number for that headunit, so i can be sure what to look for? Also i will have to add USB port since i don't have any right now. Buti think that this is the easy part.
And i assume that i will need further CP removal and coding to make it all working if i replace the headunit.

check the screen part number,5F0 919 603D are 5.8 inch , 5F0919604A is 6.4 inch.Actually mine should be 6.5" display. It's not the smallest one neither the biggest one (8").

if you have 5.8 inch you need 6.4 inch or 8 inch , the 5.8 is not compatible with mib2 2.5 or 3
5F0035846A is MIB 1 cam with 5.8 inch screen for sure, its was my old radio.
5QA035846A is MIB 2 tecnisat radios can be unlocked with odis . if you get one, VAG pro unlock and code for £60/£80 in Leicester, or most places remove cp and code for around same price .
it says on top of the radios.

if you don't want to choose radio, retrofits sells these cheaper ones

Hey guys
Another question, I need just to be sure for this one.
I've found a display - 5F0919604A for cheap. It should work with MIB2 headunit, right?
Also, i've found a headunit with part number 5QA035824. This is MIB2 unit, correct? And it's compatible with the display i've found?
5QA035824 does support Carplay after activation?
Sorry for the many questions but i need to be sure what im buying and you here are the experts

Sorry to jump on this thread but does anyone know the part number for the centre console cubby that fits the USB connector. I was going to modify my original but can't be bothered. Im curious to see if the seat dealer is cheaper than East yorkshire retrofit.
Centre Console USB Trim
If you're upgrading from to MIB2 (for example using one of our kits) You'll require the centre console trim to hold the USB port.This trim is new and unused, and available in both black & silver. The colour you choose relates to the accent trim found on your existing trim

found one part number on real oem seat, need to look again
I'm not paying £58, I work about 500 yards from seat but the parts staff are useless.these people sell it for that price but was told is cheaper on dealer, there is two one that is sideways and one vertical like the one they selling.Centre Console USB Trim

ill message a friend he knows the part n,£58 is crazy for that and they want £60 for the boot plastic when dealer sell for £35
There are threads and discussions about. @Walone has done it.... may be able to direct you to these. For Apple car play you have to change the USB as I recall as well as the rest. The boards sponsor @East Yorkshire Retrofits use to sell the parts prepped / fit, may still do. What you can't do is pick up a unit from scrap yard and hope it fits. That one was locked to the car. Early web page projects you find dwell on getting it unlocked and re-enabled. Where you need VAG hardware. They lost the navigation license when that was done. Where skilled people are required on the software side to prep it. There might be better DIY software techniques these day. Of those that did upgrade they upgraded to mib2 high or you could stick to mib2 standard.
Where I toss in the idea of those Chinese Android car units you see that being talked about on thread here. I think some people have fitted them as an alternative.
