My one issue with the Fender Audio system is the EQ. That infotainment CD player in the glove box, could you remove that and pop in an EQ or a head unit with one build in?
The kicker for both changing the HU and adding an EQ is that the Fender system includes a DSP/amp combo (Under the drivers seat) that you need to work around. It is programmed from VW at the factory and I don't believe there is an interface to allow for changes by the end user. It is not so easy to just add an EQ after the glove box Infotanment system as it feeds right into the factory DSP. Which may or may not tweek the signal again anyway.
You either have to work with the factory DSP it or build a system around it. If you research factory stereo integration, you will get an idea of what you can do.
