I had a word with Darren today and he is going to fit my LEDS also  :smiley:
i am waiting for him to get another RNS510 so he can fit that at the same time, cos the one i got off ebay and fitted dosn't work with steering controls, camera, or show up on the MFD  :angry: Darren tried coding a couple of times and the unit won't even take a firmware update, the unit on its own works fine manually  :undecided:
He also tried one in my car that he had for a customer and all worked fine.

Good stuff!! they do look great :cool:

was driving behind a white gti the other day.. and i have to say I dont like the look of the back as much as I do the front, or the rear of the R/R32. These lights really help set it off though. Give me a shout when you are next over and I will try pop down just for a nosey  :smiley: :wink:

Love to see pics of the LEDs on your Red car.
I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that it is best to deal with Darren for RNS 510 +FISCON purchase and fitting and possible LED fitting (once I have seen the pics!). :smiley:

Saw a white GTI last Saturday flash past on the outer ring road heading towards Roundhay Lights (from the A58 rdbt) about 3.00pm  ... thought that might have been you ?

Anyway I'll be able to spot you now with a quick look at your backside  !! :laugh: :laugh:
