Phone Kit options
« on: 01 March 2010, 11:50 »
Mk6 GTI phone kits...

Folks, I've seen several threads about these, but I'm still confused.
What are the options?
Most seem easy enough to fit, some need coding with VCDS...no real problems there.
...but do microphones need fitting or do VW fit one regardless?
...do they work with the steering wheel controls?
...do they work with Blackberrys?

The options seem to be:
Fiscon
VW Bluetooth
Mobridge?

Can anyone shed any light?
Cheers,

Glen.

I have RNS510 with fiscon unit, and voice activation thingy.. works very well with both my Blackberry's (Curve and Bold 2). Steering wheel functions needed coding but I am able to dial, with the MFSW amongst other things. Works excellent everytime and phone book is updated everytime i connect via bluetooth.  :smiley:

I'll check to see what I've ordered  -  apparently, I had to be careful because I've got an iphone and iphones are not compatible with some of the hands-free/blue tooth kits out there.....wait a sec....I've ordered something called a VW Touch Phone.

After alot of investigating myself I will be going for the Fiscon set up. Been in touch with Rich from Fiscon UK and it seems like the superior device

Theres a few options:

One is the dealer fit Touch kit, this gives you a small screen looks kinda sat nav-ish, that attaches to a bracket.
Theres the Fiscon and MoBridge options, which are quite close to factory fit, and they allow use of iPhone and Blackberry.
Theres VW`s own factory fit, but if you order this with your car, you will be limited to rSAP phones - i.e. not iPhone or BB.
Then theres the kit I have, but not fitted yet, which is original VW kit like they would fit at the factory, but isnt tied to rSAP phones only. Got mine off ebay a few weeks ago.

Hope that helps some... :wink:

This is one of the sellers auctions...this actual one doesnt say it works with non-rSAP phones though, a PM to the seller would be best methinks...
