RNS510 + Bluetooth + MFSW
« on: September 03, 2012, 06:40:13 pm »
Hi All,

Ive got a few of questions around the RNS510, bluetooth and MFSW if someone could possibly confirm.....Ive been reading for the last couple of weeks and have found most of the stuff I think but am confused  :confused: about the following but first a bit of background..

I'm looking at an edition 30 with dsg and from what i gather it has the 'correct' wheel to retro fit the multi function buttons?! not sure if thats correct or not, I believe the RNS unit is plug and play and therefore shouldnt be an issue but its the bluetooth controller that im most confused about as all the parts ive seen seem to suggest that they work only with the white MFD.....or am i not looking enough?

Anyways questions are these:

Can I get all these parts retro fitted without too much trouble and if so specifically what are the part numbers for the bluetooth and multi function steering wheel buttons?
Ive heard some RNS units drian the batt, if so any ideas what model do i require ? i understand they go from A-H or there abouts?
Also assuming i can get the bluetooth controller whats the chance of it not being phone compatible ? (Ive got a galaxy s3 and not an iphone :) )

Basically i want the full functionality cos im greedy  :grin:

cheers in advance

Thanks for the referral to eddie, I've also got similar questions. Have to say that this forum rule of no PM's for newbies is ridiculous, often you join a forum to read the threads and then purchase parts or ask questions. Not everyone is an avid poster. Rant over lol  :laugh:
