Hey guys,

I have visited this forum in ages ... I recently upgraded to the GTI 6r from my old GTI 9n3. It came with the normal head unit but I am wanted to upgrade that to one that's touch screen . I would like some help please as I don't know where to even begin . I just want to be able to play music and have some GPS built in with maybe a few other extra's ... nothing bank breaking please.

cheers

Guys looking for the RNS510 Radio unit contact Ruan on 082 552 1146
He imports and sells these Units, a trust worthy and genuine source and his units are quality and can help with an install if you like as well, Plus it comes with a reverse Camera.
Then for the Canbus problem on the older model GTI'S there is a Fuse box modification that can be done that works(Cheaper way out)
He can help you with this as well.

He is on the Forum but not sure what his Username is

MDI cable at the dealers should be about R1000 or less.

I've bought from something from "Buy 2 Save" which offer MDI USB cables and it was delivered by courier in 20 days from when I put int the order. Can't say it would be the same with every item of theirs, but what I bought did not seem to get stuck in customs for long.

Just make sure the cable is the one you want first of course. I just checked the first USB one they listed...
