Hello everyone. I have a friend who is selling a VW Passat B6 (3C) and can give me his MIB2 for a decent price. I would like to know if there is any way to check if Component Protection is on or off. 
 

Also, what else should I get (apart from the CarPlay USB and Quadlock adapter) in order to make it work fine (without battery drain)? 
 

L.E.: forgot to mention, my car is a ‘07 mk. 2 Octavia. 
 

thanks!

I don't think your car has any CP issues but should require a unlock code for the new(er) unit.

@john999boy - Thanks for such a quick reply. I am concerned about the unit having CP on because this guy sells second hand cars and he doesn't know anything about the car. Is there any way to check if the MIB 2 unit has CP on or off? 

 

I forgot to mention, it has a Seat part number, but the boot logo is for VW.

Unfortunately I easily get mistaken with the part numbers so will rely on additional info from someone else! 

I have an idea that @Tell might be able to throw his wand over the problem though........
