You'll find a link to the instructions for activating VIM with a VCDS cable about halfway down the page linked below. Also info on the other requirements for playing videos from an AMI cable.

You need to do this via a VAGCOM update:

I don't have any VAGcom and I doubt i'll be able to make it work, i'm not that much cleaver!So I bought a KUFATEC device which is very easy to use,you only have to plug it on the diagnostic plug (under the dashboard near the break pedal)and it's done in less than five seconds!The down side is:It cost around 150 dollards,it can be use only one time,and it is not reversible .I found that on their german web site.

Yes ,first I ordered it through the web site,142 euros I receive it a few days later I installed by myself very esayly,"plug and play",it was 7 months ago and never had a problem,so a very good experience.but be careful it may be illegal in some countries to watch dvd while driving
