No nothing under drivers seat rather.
That must be why parrot was fitted. I think my only options are to buy Bluetooth from vw and wire it up or buy parrot also plays music ?

If it was me, I'd buy a Parrot MKi 9100 or 9200. Basically, both are the same adapter just different displays. Both have multiple music inputs, either iPod, USB or 3.5mm AUX jack. They also stream music via Bluetooth which needs an optional extra cable with the VW equivalent. Oh, and you will already have the wiring adapter for a Parrot behind the radio.
I have older model called PARROT PK3300 I don't think it will work will it what exactly will I need from mki9100 or 9200

You'll need either a MKi9100 or 9200. What you shouldn't need is the wiring adapter that interfaces the bluetooth to the car radio. You should already have that connected to your current Parrot. Just remove your current Parrot and replace it with the new one.
There are a lot of wires on those Parrot kits, especially the older ones, and at first it "looks" a bit complicated. Don't be put off by all the wires. It's a pretty much plug 'n' play installation. Usually the hardest part is trying to get the radio back into the dash with all the extra wire behind it, but that's not so bad on the 91/9200 because they only have one box to hide behind the dash as were the earlier Parrots had two.
So just the head unit or the whole kit please be more specific thanks for your help and support its much appreciated

You'll need the complete 91/9200 kit not just the display. The bit the music plugs into is on the control box.
Sounds a bit of a task

I had an MKi9200 in my old Civic. I would be carefull with second hand kits as they may not have the latest software and may not work correctly with the latest phones. According to the Parrot site the latest version of the 9200 is the mk3. I had the mk2 and it was great on phone calls but occasionally kept resetting the iPod connection but that could have been the iPod itself of course.
If you are buying second hand make sure it comes with the blue control box as this is not the same as the one you have. Also you need to make sure the whole kit is supplied, screen, controller, parrot wiring loom and cable for the ipod/usb/3mm Jack is included. You may be able to re-use the existing microphone but no guarantees. The wiring interface between the Parrot loom and the back of the VW head unit should be the same so that can probably be re-used.
As for Bluetooth streaming, I only used this one or two times as I mainly used the hardwired iPod connection but certainly you can control the music from the phone or at least it worked on my HTC one M8 and Samsung S7.
It may be worth you taking a look at the Parrot website. It is quite good with downloads and a user forum and if you are unsure about doing the install yourself then there are plenty of companies who will do this for you including Halfords but of course that would be for new kits.
