Bought an RCD 510, what else do I need?

[zed4]

Hi,

I've just bought an RCD 510 for our 2006 Golf GTI. It's to replace an RCD 500. What else will I need? Presumably a gateway, can anyone advise the correct part number for this please?

It's the DAB version, will I need a new antenna?

Finally, if I want to add an iPod input to it, and bluetooth, what part numbers will I need?

Many thanks for any help.

Dan

you'll also need an FM lead adaptor like this:-

and a DAB aerial for the roof:-

then a lead for DAB to headunit:-

Thanks for your replies. Which Bluetooth system do I need? There are quite a few advertised here, on eBay and elsewhere on the internet. I don't know what the differences are and which I should buy!

The 9W7 bluetooth kit works nicely with it, fits under the seat and you'll need a mic to go in the roof area

Looking at this:

and this:

It looks like the only differences are that the VW kit won't work with the red highline display, and the Fiscon displays a load of other car related info on the highline, correct?
