Rns510 aerial adaptor
« on: July 09, 2014, 09:57:19 pm »
When upgrading from a 2nd generation stereo (mfd2) to a 3rd generation rns510 I've read you need an aerial adaptor but
I've seen 2 types available one has a white plug and one blue plug and the other has a white plug and two blue plugs?
What's the difference? And which would I need for a
Rns510?
Thanks

Also, if you have an early model mk5 with the black MFD2 (CD) you may need to bypass the aerial diversity control unit as well for optimal radio reception.

If you have to do that then this is the adapter you will need:
