Hi, 

I'm owning a 2014 Octavia MK3 and it comes with a Swing radio. I'm thinkin about to upgrade it to a bigger newer model like a Columbus. 
Did anybody changed from the Swing to a Columbus? 

 

After I read some threads, I found out, I need to know that my Octavia has an MIB1 or MIB2 (I guess it has MIB1). 

My goal is using Android auto, so I guess I need an MIB2 with a compatible display but I'm not sure.

This. Give @pab567 a shout as the resident guru. He'll hook you up but prepare for £500-1200 depending on spec.

It's by far the best upgrade I made as I use AA daily.

Thank you very much! 

is it able to change the existing radio to an MIB2 radio? 

 

Pretty sure the swing is an all-in-one unit so everything is in the dash.

 

If you want a Bolero, Amundsen or Columbus, they are two parts units. The display is just a display and the actual headunit lives above the glovebox.

 

I only mention it as you'll need to figure our how to extend the wires and possibly swap various glovebox parts to get the new version in.
