Title: Digital radio question.
Post by: jimmy-s3 on December 08, 2012, 01:27:45 pm

Probably a silly question but what are the options for a digital radio in my Edition30? I have the standard head unit in at the moment..

RCD510 DAB radio around £200 plus on ebay.

I have one in my 2005 GTI with DAB antenna stuck on the inside of the windscreen (cost £20).

Have no problems with reception and it is great to have the option of all those extra channels with great sound :happy2:

I had to change the CANBUS gateway on mine (battery drain issue) but as you have an Eddy think you will be ok.

Have a look here: http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/board,19.0.html

and search is your friend :smiley:

The new rns510 are now DAB but they are nearer £700 and all they have over the RCD is sat nav and DVD player
