Hi all.
My recently acquired golf5 gti has been butchered by the previous owner, who removed the 500 series factory radio and fitted a sony single din deck.
Problem is that the plugs were cut in stead of adapters used, so the wiring is about of a mess.
I am in the process of acquiring a doublexdin touch screen radio (that will support steering controls) and wanted to know if anyone has the wiring diagram for the mk5?
Attached is a photo of 3 cables I think may be just that, as they were just taped off and not connected to anything behind the radio in the dash. (Orange/orange with purple stripe/red).
Another thing that puzzles me is I dont see a permanent power wire in the wiring bundle.
Just a ignition power and ground red with yellow stripe and brown (which I presume is ground)(see attached photos).
I would appreciate any help greatly.

Have you had a look on my-gti.com? They have the pin-outs at least so if you look at another mk5 you can see what is what.
I suspect mk6 colours would be the same too.
Twisted orange wires are likely to be canbus.

Re: Golf5 gti steering wheel controls
Where are you based? can help you out with the wiring.
Have done many of these android radios.
PS. twisted orange/purple wires are Canbus wires like Marco has mentioned and are part of the steering controls
