RNS 510 aerial mod?
« on: June 26, 2009, 08:56:29 am »
Morning all,

Im due to get my RNS510 today, if the Post Office pull their finger out!

Im removing an RCD300.

Question is - is there anyway I can modify the aerial connections so that the RNS510 fits the car?

(I understand the aerials from the rcd300 dont plug in the the rns510 without needing to buy a conversion cable).

Apparently the mod cable from VW is over £20.....anyone know how I could save paying out for this and get my new system fitted today?

Just a thought....

Andy

just pull the plastic fakra connector bits off, under them is the metal connectors you need  :happy2:

it should look like below, you can see a gold push on clip inside, this needs pulling out, then the plastic cover can be removed from the metal

Nice one, just what I was looking for thanks!

All I need now is for RM to pull their bloody fingers out and deliver the thing!
