Bought a non usb rcd510?!
« on: December 23, 2015, 06:06:43 pm »
So earlier this week an rcd510 came on the market for quite a cheap and I thought I'd grab it till I can afford the rns510.. It arrived today with both the cables to connect the aux and usb. The aux I understand goes into the back of the loom and connects as such but there is no way I can connect then usb? Did a bit of search and found that my one is missing the port to connect the usb to the stereo :sad1: so what I wanna know is if there's a way I can connect up the usb and get it to work?! thanks for any advice on advance!

You bought a RCD510 for asian market yeap? If yes, there is 3 different versions of it. 1 simple, without usb support/camera, with usb support, and with usb/camera support. You can buy MDI unit, to get usb working. If it is for EU market, USB will not work without MDI aswell.
