The RoW Passat B7 went out of production by end of 2014. PQ cars that continued in production (Jetta, Beetle, Caddy, Passat NMS, CC) got little technical updates from the MQB parts bin (some even got a real facelift like the Jetta and NMS). Part of these technical updates were the MQB front cameras 3Q0980654, MQB Side Assist modules and knurled climate and side mirror adjustment knobs like on MQB cars.Maybe I'm stupid or something but I just couldn't find 3Q0 camera for B7. Looking at year 2015 where it changes from B7 to B8. B7 may has 3AA980654 camera, B8 from May has 3Q0980654. 3C-F100 (B7) and 3C-F200 (B8).
To my understanding the 3Q0 or 5Q0 needs the new gateway module as well. Otherwise the messages coming from the camera are not understood by the gateway.
If I remember correctly, a sample 2016 NMS from the reference scans section with factory ACC had the 7N0907530BC CAN gateway, which is suitable for retrofitting the front camera. This one -> https://forums.ross-tech.com/showthread.php?6384-2016-Passat-1-8T-CPKA
