You can have CD changer with the MDI USB/ipod adapter - the MDI needs to be the glovebox version, although I'm not sure there is a need to play cds when you have USB/ipod support

I didn't know this was possible. Where does the glove box MDI connect to the RNS when you have the CD changer?

Same socket on the back of the RCD/RNS, the MDI connector has a couple of bypass pins on it

18GB Hard Disk to store MP3s on

Cheers...
Can you pop a CD in and have the RNS convert to MP3?

Navigation - thats where the £1000 goes

But better than my Snooper Indago at 5 times the price?
And no camera locations?
Hmm..

Because I don't have an iPod...but do have hundered of CDs that I can't be bothered to convert to MP3 in order to play an obscure album or track!

Out on interest,
How does the iPod control work?
Can you scroll through albums using the menus?
Does the VW set-up turn the iPod on and off with the RCD/RNS 510?


RNS can't convert from the CD to MP3 thats what your PC/MAC is for

My RNS510 shows me the location of the cameras (no warning beeps though) as I have updated the POIs

My MP3s on my USB stick don't get scratched like cds

Full scroll control of playlists/albumns & songs from the HU as per ipod. MDI charges the ipod/iphone
