Title: Bluetooth for iPhone4
Post by: branchespark on 05 January 2011, 10:33: Spoke to my dealer about the Bluetooth module 3C8 035 730A and he says it is not available. What is the module that works with the iPhone4 (on the newer cars)? The car I am looking at getting has the older one, so I need to change it out.

Thanks.

I am fitting two of these at the weekend.

He said that just the module under the drivers seat needs changing to the latest version

Post by: Jimble on 05 January 2011, 19:11: Darren should be fitting this for me next week but mine doesn't have the factory prep, would A2DP still be in mono?

Better integrated and better sound quality are the key things for me.

Post by: branchespark on 06 January 2011, 10:25: I would agree about the better integration being important.

Now, all I need is to hear from Darren to order the RNS510 and the Bluetooth! I have a VAGCOM on the way, so coding should be OK.
