    Either got a good deal or I am stupid!

    I figured what the hell, and I bid 170 on this...

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/320903537991...84.m1497.l2649

    Will it work in an 09 CC? I just realized it's in China.

    Im going to keep my fingers crossed for you! Because if that works (not only would I be amazed) but that's a really good investment. Keep us posted on this one!

    Good deal if it turns out to be real. Should be a direct fit into a 2009, possibly even plug and play.

    Seller has a good feedback rating but is it really OEM VW? Seen a ton of Chinese knockoffs. But yea if it works then you got a smokin deal.

    I believe this will be a plug and play unit and that you will get what you are expecting.

    However, I also believe that you should have saved your bucks until you could afford an RNS510.

    It MAY require a VAGcom mod to enable your new touch screen radio.

    Have fun and let us know if we can be of any help when it comes time for installation.

    Actually, the real question is whether the GUI will be in Chinese (Mandarin)... If it's for the Chinese market I would suspect yet, having seem radio heads there. Let us know!

    At the least, there will be no compatibility with Sirius. Good luck. Hope it has an English GUI and works well for you. The buttons are a bit different than the RCD510 I have, which, incidentally, will be for sale in a week or so.
