You'll need a GPS antenna puck, and an aerial adaptor to make it fit. Then there'll be some coding with VCDS to make everything work. Then you'll need to change the CAN gateway to prevent battery drain issues, or modify the firmware on the RNS510 for the same reason.
Sarcasm for free. Anything after that can only be considered as a bonus.

Just because you think you know something, doesn't make you an expert if you've just read it on the internet, y'know.
