Stinger USBRT-VW01 Dual USB and 3.5mm AUX Retention Adaptor for Volkswagen Golf MK7 5G 2014 to 2018 Including GTI

The Stinger USBRT-VW01 is a USB and AUX retention adaptor for 2014 to 2018 Volkswagen Golf MK7 5G series models including GTI variants. Restores dual USB and 3.5mm AUX factory port functionality after a head unit upgrade by bridging the factory wiring to a compatible aftermarket head unit with dual USB and 3.5mm AUX rear inputs. No splicing or soldering required. Fascia kit and wiring harness not included.

Product overview

When the factory radio is replaced in the Golf MK7, the standard factory USB and AUX inputs can become non-functional. The USBRT-VW01 restores both connections by routing the factory wiring to the aftermarket head unit's rear inputs, keeping the factory-located ports working exactly as expected without additional wiring runs or exposed adaptors in the cabin.

The adaptor requires a compatible aftermarket head unit with dual USB and a 3.5mm AUX input on the rear. Confirm your head unit's rear input configuration before purchasing. For the fascia kit for this installation, the Stinger SFDVW01 Double DIN Gloss Black Fascia Kit is available separately.

Features and benefits

Dual USB retention: Retains both factory USB ports for use with a compatible aftermarket head unit, keeping charging and media playback connectivity in the factory location.

3.5mm AUX retention: Retains the factory AUX input for continued use with the new head unit without additional wiring.

Clean factory finish: Routes USB and AUX connections through the factory loom rather than adding new cables, maintaining a clean, unmodified appearance in the cabin.

No splicing or soldering required: Connects to the factory wiring on one end and the aftermarket head unit's rear inputs on the other.

Requires compatible head unit: The aftermarket head unit must have dual USB and a 3.5mm AUX input on the rear for this adaptor to function.
