My friend is thinking about getting a MK5 and he likes the look of my touchscreen RCD510.
Was there a touchscreen headunit available in the MK5? If not, could a MK6 headunit be put in a MK5?
-
Yeah the RCD510 and RNS can be installed in the Mk5
-
Cool, thanks.
I assume the MK5 didn't come with touchscreen?
-
Touchscreen came in on the MK6 golfs - they give the dash a massive lift :smiley:
-
You need to watch out for battery drain issues with the MK5 depending on what control module is fitted and what year the car is.
Some info HERE (http://www.my-gti.com/1101)

The run out Mk5's (built in 2008) would have the RNS-510 or RCD-510 rather than the older MFD2 or RCD-500.

Thanks guys! I am trying to convert him. He got a new job which is a bit of a drive from his house and he currently drives a thirsty 330 Clubsport BMW. Diesel could be the way forward for him!
