Replacing MIB2 USB port for CarPlay support (5G0 035 222 E / 5Q0 035 726 E)

After enabling full App-Connect (Skoda Smart Link, Seat Full Link) feature you will have new options of CarPlay, Android Auto and Mirror Link available in your car. Apparently #CarPlay needs a dedicated USB port that supports this feature. There's most likely hardware key in the USB port itself required to be recognized by MIB2 infotainment head unit.

🔍 Here's how to replace the original media ports (5G0 035 222 F) in Volkswagen Golf MK7 (5G) with upgraded one 5G0 035 222 E. Original wiring had to be modified in order to connect with new USB port.
