RNS 510 SAT NAV

Cheers I will look into that

Mine came very well packed with a custom made polystyrene filled type box. 
Inside I got an aerial adapter (not required for my car), official Map DVD V5 (V6.1 was installed on the units HD), a code card, and the latest FW disk (which was also installed on the unit).  The unit was wrapped in cling film to keep it from getting scratched.

The stereo itself was immaculate.  There were no obvious marks or scratches.  The date on the serial sticker (manufacture date) was only about 6 weeks old.  Like FroGTI - I wouldn't like to guess where it had come from (the seller told me it was rescued from a written off car  ), but it looks and works like new.

Did someone have a "normale" RNS510 before and  swapped it for a LED version?
I want to know if you see any difference on the screen, for example more brightness, more details etc.

Yes...
The overall brightness seems to be a bit better in that you can see the screen on the LED version better in sunlight.  The main difference is that the LED version is at full brightness as soon as you switch it on.  The older version seems to take 30 seconds or so to come to its full brightness. 
The touch screen seems a bit more responsive.  Sometimes I found I really had to 'poke' the old version - whereas the LED one responds to lighter touches.

Other than that - I no longer have Regensberg Syndrom - but thats about it!

If i understand you right, you had the regensburg trouble to with your other rns510?

I would agree with p3eps: the LED is brighter and more sensitive than the non-LED screen, but not enough to warrant upgrading from old to new, IMHO.

My old one is perfect, no scratches and other things, but to firmware 1100 he was working perfect and still is, but after a retro fit for a emblem/camera i needed to update the firmware for a larger RVC screen and that's were the Regensburg trouble came in, i really hate that, if i come out of a garage i want to no wich direction i need to go, but the regensburg issue make me drive a couple of miles before the rns510 picks up the right location.......

Correct!
I have a reverse cam and I liked the layout of the parking sensors / cam on my RCD510.
When I replaced the RCD510 with the RNS510, I couldn't get the same layout without upgrading the firmware.  Once I updated the firmware I got Regensberg syndrom. 

I put up with it for a few weeks, but it annoyed me too much.

SOUNDS LIKE THIS REPLACING RCD510 WITH CAM FOR RNS510 SOUNDS COMPLICATED AND TROUBLESOME?

Absolutely not at all!
Its a simple plug and play task as long as you have an RNS510 with a recent firmware version.
