    Default VW passat deck install ??? help

    Im triing to have a deck installed in a 2002 VW passat GLX

    Is it true that they have to rewire it because it has a seperate amp.

    the cost to have this done is 200$ just for labor.

    Anyone else install a deck in this type of car.

    thanks

    and who do you recommend to have it installed by.

    I believe you do have to get it rewired because of the monsoon system in your car. I havent done the deck install myself because it's just way too much trouble to go through ( I have a 2000 Passat with the Monsoon System).

    Could you also install the deck and use the front and rear outputs off the deck to hook up the factory amp. So you dont have to rewire it

    thanks

    If you wanted to you could bypass the factory amp. I had to do that with my buddys 4runner.
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

    Wire an MP3 into your stock system instead. It's easier, cheaper and better than a deck.
