RNS 510 Bluetooth

[vRStu]

You will need to be careful with the airbags make sure you feed the cable under the bag so that it won't interfere with it if it is deployed.

If you bought this kit (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OEM-BLUETOOTH-HANDSFREE-KIT-RNS510-MFD3-VW-SKODA-/270608876021?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CE_GPS_Accessories_Software_ET&hash=item3f018bc1f5#ht_3501wt_1137) then I'm afraid you are missing some parts.  It pisses me off to be honest as they sell it to people who quite rightly assume they've got everything.

You will also need to order the following from your dealer -

1Z0 971 813 62U - Covering Black or 1Z0 971 813 3AU Covering Ivory
N909 460 01 - Expanding Nut x2
N908 170 03 - Torx Screw x2
6U0 819 055 - Clip x2
1Z0 035 185 - Bracket x 1

I always include these with a kit as it saves any messing around.

So Stu, are you saying that you also sell this kits directly to forum members ? If so how much for a kit that will work with a "B" version RNS (firmware 1300), and an Iphone 3GS (4.01). I also have the older style MFSW with the 2 phone buttons. I appreciate the comments that it wont work in my highline Red display, but so long as the other functions work (Audio, Nav, MFA etc. ) then that's fine by me, happy to use the RNS screen, but it would be cool if the MFSW telephone buttons still worked like they do with my current parrot kit ?.

I normally try to keep a few kits in, most of mine go overseas but if someone here wants one then sure I can do that.

The MFSW buttons are a bit it and miss as you've seen from some of the replies here so in some respects it's a bit suck it and see I'm afraid.

My wiring looms aren't plug and play like the one in the picture, I don't think it's the best solution to be honest (for two reasons - I think the double Quadlock is far too bulky for behind the dashboard and the female Quadlock is often not of good quality or doesn't have all the pins in it.) The ones I use are wired for voice control of the RNS510, I'm not sure that one is.

I went for the kit you recommened

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-PREMIUM-Bluetooth-KIT-RCD-mfd3-RNS-RNS510-7P6-A2DP-/170512767381?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item27b35a5995#ht_4586wt_1137

Does this look like it has everything?

[coop]

sorry I mean the one steve recommended

[vRStu]

I can't see the loom in any detail.  He says it supports Voice Control but I'm not sure if that includes voice control of the RNS510.  There is a bracket missing which I think is 1K0 919 737M.

Im a bit worried now, ive just googled the bracket I need and I found a install guide where someone has fiited the bluetooth unit under the seat, which looks way to advanced for me, will I may be able to fit this unit behind the stereo and do I definatly need the bracket?

[vRStu]

In some respects you can fit it where you like so long as you have the space.  The OEM bracket and position is under the seat, it is for pretty much all of these solutions.

I wouldn't be too sure it'll go behind the radio myself as it's quite a big interface.

[SteveP]

It's much better to fit it under the seat and buy the bracket like Stu says.

I agree with his point on the double quadlock being bulky, but the ones from car-systems are good quality, I just personally re-wrap the loom in VW tape. They are also wired for VC too.

If you want help fitting then I am saw one of us on here will help. Where are you located?

You do also know it will need coding to the car with VCDS?

[LouCyffer]

It's too big for the dash. It fits well under the seat. A few Velcro pads stuck to the underside ensures it grips the carpet and won't slide. That's how mine is

[coop]

Ok under the seat it is then, Ill get some one to fit it for me, will I need anything else other than some Velcro? Cheers

[cameluk]

The bracket etc is very easy to fit under the seat, and well worth it

The hardest bit is runnning the wire loom inside the door sill

[coop]

Anyone know where I can get the Mounting Bracket 1K0 919 737M?

Any ideas how much VW would charge to fit and code?

[vRStu]

Order the bracket from your dealer.

The bracket is around £5.50 from the dealer
