Sorry to bringback an older thread but I was checking out the driver's gear site this morning and saw that they reduced the price of the phatnoise. Definately more reasonable now. I might have to pick one up.

Does anyone know if they phatbox music titles show up on the factory deck? I have the non-monsoon deck.

I think I will buy one once they get the song name and playlist name to appear. Hope can make it work.

Does anyone have any pics of this thing installed in the back of a GTi? Was just wondering what I can expect it to look like on my 20th.

It sits in the back of the car in the compartment that the CD changer normally occupies.

I have the full Monsoon, and unless I am mistaken it does show ID3 tags on the display. I can't speak for the non-Monsoon decks, however.

Re: Phat on sale in US only

It doesn't actually fit in the same spot as the CD changer in the Golf/GTI. Unless you do some modifications to it at least, the mounting kit gets attached on the outside of the compartment, right next to it.

I bought mine about 2 months ago, ended up paying about 600 bucks after getting the mounting kit and GST.

Personally, I think I would buy the thing... so long as it could be installed behind the panel where the CD changer is supposed to be.

Anyone have any idea of how hard this would be to "factory install" (ie. hidden) the Phat Noise hardware out of sight? I can't seem to find any photo's on the net so far.

It doesn't display ID3 tags monsoon or not

edit: that said, it does kick some ass, and I don't regret buying it at all.
