OEM soundsystem upgrades RETROFITTING prices

[santiagopilgrim]

Hi all,

Popped into a dealers today and asked if they could retrofit the sound system upgrade into my now one year old mk7.

Yes is the answer and they can fit the following:

Part: 000051419 (sub fits in spare wheel) for £510 fully fitted

Part: 000051419A (sub sits in boot as a long box) for £450 fully fitted

Not sure which sound system would be better, but I'm glad I can get them retrofitted fairly simply. Just need to save up now.

000051419 won't work on post build week 2015/21 on MIB II units. New part number 000051419B available towards year end.

Santiago, is that just the sub? No tweeter upgrade or amplifier upgrade?

If so, will just the sub improve the quality sufficiently to be considered good value?


Collecting on 1st September: Mk7 Golf Estate SE 1.4TSI 125 Manual in Metallic Night Blue. Options: Car-Net App Connect, Discover Nav, 2Zone Climate, Net Partition, Silver Roof Rails, Park Assist with Front&Rear Park Sensors.

Hey Matt!

I'm not sure what they include, when I have more time I will go in and see if they can show me the systems inside a demo vehicle so I can compare them and see what's best. I'll post any results on here.

So if my car was registered October 2014 that will be fine?

What about adding the Fender Audio to the Base S trim cars?

Its an amplifier with digital signal processor & subwoofer ( 480 watts) sits in the spare wheel well.
It doesn't upgrade the speakers.

Although its described as 'Plug & Play' the fitted price includes the dealer removing trim panels etc running the cabling from the dash to the rear boot well.

Thats not available over here ( US market option)

I'm trying to find a <$1K option to upgrade an S sound system and can't decide to go aftermarket or 000051419B.

So then the only other option would be the soundmatrix kit

Small update. It would seem that the 000051419A has been superceded by the 000051419C. Im not sure why but my understanding is these are bot the Bar type subwoofers with the original none letter part number and the 'B' variant being the Wheel well version. This is important if you want to retain the spare wheel or like me have a fuel tank there in the hybrid version!

Tons of guys (including myself) run the spare tire woofer. Just search for "MK7 Helix Subwoofer"
