Bluetooth in MY11 GTI Works with IPhone !

[mike.]

As far as I know the OEM cable, which would have been installed with the factory option bluetooth, doesn't have both channels connected to enable A2DP streaming from the phone.
Apart for that it should just be a swap out or the Ebay cable should be OK as long as it is wired for bluetooth Audio.

I dont have any factory installed kit so i guess that either i use the plug and play cable (if that works with everything) or i try and connect the kit directly to the RNS510? (and maybe need to dismantle the plug & play cable)

I just want to make it as good and clean as possible.
I allready have the factory mounted mic, so that should be covered.

If you have the factory mic for the RNS VC, then to save yourself having to run an additional cable up to the overhead light panel you would need to re-wiring the loom and not used the quadlock plug and play piece.

IMHO unless your really bothered by it I would install the plug and play loom and disconnect the mic from the factory loom and reconnect it to the PnP loom.

OK, thanks, how do i know which is the mic cable/pin ?
So the other option is to disconnect all cables from the BT unit to the plug´n´play loom and connected them to the factory one..
Sounds like the proper way if i have the time, but do i need to splice and redo the cables or just push them out of the pnp loom and in to the factory loom ?

Thanks!

The Pinouts for the RNS510 are HERE

The Pinouts for the Bluetooth module are HERE

Thanks, and you can still use only one mic for both Voice-control and BT Handsfree correct  ?

Yes, if you look at the pin outs on the RNS there are connections for mic in and mic out.

So If I have understood all this correctly? I have got factory fitted bluetooth which works with umm.......? pretty much nothing! If i change the module under the seat for a 7P6 then it will work with the iphone etc, But I will only have sound out of the left speakers? so the wiring would just need a bit of attention?
