Don't get me wrong, I know most things nowadays are made in china, but the VAG ones are quality.  :happy2:   The WD screen shots look really out-of-date to me. But like I said, if you are on a budget, they are a great price.

No man seriously I think it's a quality build - okay the graphics aren't the best but we all run the sat nav most of the time anyway. I wasn't on a budget I just chose the WD over the RNS and I really do believe I've got the best of both worlds. But as ever each to their own  :happy2:

tbh the bluetooth for me is as good as my parrot (still inside actually!) lol

I have the DVB-T i bough another aerial on ebay (quoted 96db) but have not installed it yet (wrong fitting) so have the small one that came with it pushed through the glovebox and tried it a couple of times on the dash bth times got signal and picture. In fact today I got a perfect picture whilst pulled up outside starbucks!?! weird as the aerial was still in teh dash - anyway will expect it to be fine once I locate the aerial near a window!

The picture is fast clear no different to any LCD TV really

go buy it! - I have a feeling this v4 model (I have) has overcome most of the earlier problems and it's just a case of sorting the graphics now! :)

tomtom suck (imo) get igo 8.3 it's way way better. I had OEM sat nav before since buying car so never used tomtom apart from on my  phone a couple of years back - but i uninstalled it now and run igo 8.3 on it for biking. just hope the igo comes to android! :)

No problem asking questions otherwise you never get an idea!

It's plugged in from the front but I plan to buy a Composite AV cable and run it through the AUX IN of the HU and again feed through the glovebox.

I read that in the huge WD6050 golfmkv.com thread so there is a way to sort the problem. Maplins will sell them I think it's around a fiver mate  :smiley:
