iPhone & RCD510
« on: July 13, 2012, 03:05:54 pm »
Hi Guys

I've tried searching the forums but can't seem to find a definitive answer, what do I need in order to plug my iPhone into this stereo? I've got a 6CD changer in the armrest and the headunit has 6cds built in so ideally I'd like to get the ipod armrest replacement if possible what do I need to get in order to do this so I can control the iphone (ipod function) via the stereo?

Thanks

Jamie

Thanks Alex, I've bought those 2 should it just plug in to where I removed the cd changer?

Yes that is correct, sometimes you might have issues with wiring loom. Replacement is easily sourced and replaced if required.

That:

Or buy the new plug for MDI from VW and swap the pins. That the cheapest way. It will cost u 2-4 quid plus 1-2 hours of your work.
