VW Golf Mk5 R32 RCD360 Pro Retrofit with Highline Camera
There’s something undeniably special about the VW Golf Mk5 R32—and this one just got even better with a full VW Golf Mk5 RCD360 Pro retrofit and a factory-style Highline pop-out reversing camera. If you’re a fan of OEM upgrades that look and feel like they were there from day one, this is one to watch.💡
Ever reversed your Mk5 and thought, “I wish this had factory parking tech”? Well, this upgrade solves that. We installed a genuine-style pop-out Highline camera paired with the latest RCD360 Pro head unit—bringing full multimedia, wireless CarPlay, and crystal-clear reverse visuals to this iconic hatchback without spoiling the OEM look.
Clean, OEM-Level Integration
We’re not fans of messy installs. That’s why every cable in this retrofit was routed along the OEM harness paths—hidden from sight, secured with Tesa tape, and fastened using factory routing points. The result? A setup that looks like it rolled out of Wolfsburg with the camera already in place.
Why the RCD360 Pro?
The RCD360 Pro is the modern answer to aging factory units. It supports wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, DAB, and reverse camera input—all while maintaining steering wheel control compatibility. For the Mk5 platform, it’s one of the best plug-and-play infotainment upgrades available, and we’ve done the hard work ensuring full CANBUS integration.
Camera That Does More
This isn’t just any reverse camera—it’s a pop-out Highline unit that deploys from the badge when you engage reverse. Not only does this keep the lens clean, but it also looks factory and protects the camera from road grime. Properly coded and aligned, it gives a wide-angle view with built-in guide lines. And yes—it folds away smoothly every time.
Diagnostics and Coding Done Right
Before and after installation, we carried out a full diagnostic sweep using VCDS and ODIS to check for module compatibility, log any faults, and carry out the necessary adaptations. This ensures the camera and RCD360 Pro unit both communicate properly with the vehicle’s control modules. For vag retrofits like this, professional coding isn’t optional—it’s essential.
Relax While We Retrofit
This level of integration doesn’t happen in five minutes. While we worked, the customer enjoyed our waiting area—complete with comfy seating, hot drinks, free Wi-Fi, and a viewing window into the workshop. From removing the boot trim and tailgate plastics to routing cables through the grommets and coding the infotainment, every part of the process was carefully executed.
