The operation of the Displayswitch is comfortable and the original functions remain.

In addition to the model and year of manufacture, the specific infotainment system must also be taken into account. In many cases, the same display may have a different name in different models. For example, the generation of the MIB (Modular Infotainment System) should be taken into account. A sticker on the head unit indicates the installed generation. In many cases the same Display is called differently in different models. In addition, different display sizes can be installed within a model and a MIB generation. For example, depending on the equipment, either a 10 or 12 inch display may be installed in the VW ID.4. Pay attention to the answer "How do I measure the diagonal of my display?
