Seat leon mk3 Radio upgrade

[RiponM_27]

Well everyone, I’m in the process of changing my seat leon mk3 from the 6 button to the mib1, I took out my old radio and i’m stuck at a pickle, On my new MIB1 Screen it uses a 12 pin, where as my Old one has the quad lock which i’ve routed down into my glove box to the mib unit , i’m missing the cable for the screen ( 12 pin) does anyone know where it is?

Two questions arise. Why do you upgrade an old mib1 and not a mib2? Have you thought about the HSD cable display to the unit? I will write the connector part number later

I know what you mean, where abouts in the car would i find it?

On the 6 button radio (No unit in glovebox) i had the quad lock was actually connecting into the display now i’ve re routed it into my glovebox to the MIB1 UNIT, Seat must’ve put it somewhere or just not even have it at all.

Sometimes I wonder what the point of asking for help and advice is on here?????

 

[cairus]

my private attitude, I don't present everything on a silver platter. You can also show some personal responsibility or interest

 

[LeylandVCDS]

If someone comes on here for advice, it is generally not laziness, it is because they have either not been able to find the knowledge they seek, or they don't understand that knowledge, or that they want to ask someone who knows. And when asking a question about their car, it's usually a good bet to ask on a forum regarding that make and model of car, which the OP has done. Far from not showing any interest or responsibility - most folks want to get the right information from the right people, and don't need sarcastic remarks with a link to google. Idea of these forums is to help each other out if we can.

This is the wrong place to have this discussion.

Whilst I don't do hand holding and can often come across as unintentionally blunt, I am not THIS rude and unhelpful LOL
