RNS 510 DAB - Iphone 5 audio streaming and calls
« on: August 14, 2013, 04:26:20 pm »
Hi All,

I'm sure this has probably been covered somewhere so apologies if this is a repeat!


I want to fit the above in my 2007 edition 30.


Is it possible to stream the music from my phone to play out the unit including track names and album artwork etc?

I also obviously want full Bluetooth connectivity for calls and phone book functions!

I've heard/read that the Skoda module can be used?



Is this at all possible? Or is it easier to go down the aftermarket route? I.e Kenwood/Alpine etc

Many Thanks!!

You can't stream audio directly to an RNS510. You can fit a telephone kit to the RNS to add Bluetooth streaming or an MDI kit to plug in the phone. I'm no expert on which bluetooth modules have what features so I'll leave that for someone else to answer.

Am I right in thinking then that what I require is:

Rns 510

New gateway and coding

Something like this:

I can stream my iphone and accept calls. When I bought my rns510 on here off Sanj it came with this.
