Knowing very little about cars and after reading about car compatibility, special mounting brackets, and special cables depending on the make/model/year etc I was fairly nervous about installing the PhatBox in my 2003 VW Jetta. But it turned out to be really simple. I completely hacked it together in the end because the mounting brackets that came with the used system I got off ebay wouldn't work. I'll be getting those at some point, but for now the following works just fine.
This process should work pretty much the same for other VW cars built around 2003: New Beetle convertible (2003 +), New Beetle sedan (1998 - 2003), New Beetle sedan (2003 1/2 +), Jetta Sedan (1999 1/2 -2005), Jetta Wagon (2001 +), Passat Sedan / Wagon (1998 - 2001), Passat Sedan / Wagon (2001 1/2 - 2005), Golf / GTI (1999 1/2 +), Golf R32 (2004 - 2005), Touareg (2004 + ) (Not on vehicles with DVD navigation), and EuroVan (1998 - 2003).
The Box
The Head Unit Connector
The VW Adapter That Must Be Removed
Connecting The PhatBox
The Place Where You Stick It
I Stuffed The Bottom With Bubble Wrap
And Also Wrapped The Box
All Done
