Well, it's only been two weeks wait so far.....with the mindset that it'll be worth it in the end....and I was told 5 months max...although dealer did try and sell a 6mth old R line for £8K more....tempted but just too rich for me

Hi

Mortygt140 is the man for the RNS510, he has the latest edition with the LED screen for £600 and he or SteveP would probably fit it for you.

It is an awesome bit of kit and so much less than the stealers would charge you.  I have just had the rear LEDs retrofitted + the RNS510 and a reversing camera the whole lot came to £1400 + fitting costs which will remain private between myself and Darren, who did a first class job.

Don't buy from anyone else these guys are top dogs.  Am1w would no doubt be in full agreement as both have done work on his GTI.
