2006 GTi. Which headunit have i got?
« on: October 08, 2009, 02:01:30 pm »
As per the title does anyone know what head unit is fitted to my Golf GTi? Is it an RCD300 or RCD500? Also does it have CANBUS?

Yeah, it does need a bit of a clean! Thanks Deako!

What's the difference between the 300 & 500 then?

How can I find out which manufacturer has made my RCD300? I'm looking at getting a Dension Gateway 100, and the supplier wants to know whether Grundig or Visteon made my headunit.

Thanks for that idea. was hoping to find out via a simpler method as this was my last resort, but I suppose I can be sure to get it right without any worries!
