Been looking for a DAB aerial but with having a 2005 model I don't have a aerial on the roof, it's built into the tailgate. I wanted to stay OEM and didn't want a stick on aerial in the windscreen, found this off Ed.
DAB amplifier off a MK6. After a bit of a search and a read on the net I replaced the left hand tailgate unit found in mine, see below.
The DAB version has a double Fakra on it so I had to source some connectors. Couldn't find where so bought a few leads with connectors on, they come off easy and it wasn't much additional outlay
Took the plug off and fitted it to my long extension lead that goes through the tailgate, headlining and into the DAB connector on the RCD510
Lashed it all up and it worked, had AM and FM as well, once tested tidied it all up and job done. Opens up a load more channels and as a bonus reception by me is pretty good.
Also had the high level brake light failed. bought a new one and carefully broke the old one out as per here.
http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=121067.0Got my clutch fitted by Alex at AKS. Had a few extras on the way due to bushes being a bit worn. Alex had some S3 console bushes and I also had a superpro insert to replace the autotech insert I had installed a few months back.
Alex also replaced my N75 valve, I'd been having intermittent loss of boost and a distinctive change in exhaust pitch. I naturally assumed a wastegate issue and replacing the N75 seems to have sorted it all out. It must have been sticking for some time as the surge I was getting with my REVO map seems to have reduced significantly with this latest revision N75.
Apologies for the crap photos.
Now the Helix is in next stop R-Tech for 2+. At least the clutch won't be the limiting factor when it being done.
