Title: Removing Mk5 RNS500
Post by: indublin on 16 May 2008, 10:26: Any one know where there is a post with instructions on how to remove the radio in a MK5? I also need to know if the 2007 RNS 500 CD based Sat Nav model radio has any pre outs for hooking up to an Amp? Apologies if I should be posting this in the Audio section!
