idealy i just want to unplug the 6cd and add a cable
You can do this but the cable is either £50 or £150 from VW.
do i need to add the cable to 6cd end or into rcd300
The stereo has one port at the back. You can plug one of three cables - one that connects to the CD changer, one that connects to an ipod or one that connects to a USB device. You cannot have all three cables at once. If you're going for ipod connection, you will lose the ability to use the cd autochanger.
so its a case of looking at the display of ipod, so do i get a mount for it (not keen on that) i was just going to rest it in the armrest or the cup holder.
As far as I'm aware, the VW ipod cable doesn't transfer any data about the title/artist etc. I remember someone saying that you can get an aftermarket cable that will display such things but may cause problems with the stereo.
oh or do i just get one of them FM transmitters
I had one of those FM transmitters - borrowed a mates one. It was crap. Pirate radio stations interfered with the signal, the sound quality was crap and I sometimes had to hold the transmitter closer to the aerial. Don't waste money on an FM transmitter.
would it help if i had a RCD300 with the wording MP3 on it, above the cd slot
Don't know is the simplest answer. I have the RCD500 with is like the 300 but holds 6 non-mp3) cds. I have the ipod nano connector. Like I said in my last post, it works with the 4th gen ipod nano.
