MDI Interface

vRStu:
I used the OEM kit which contains everything you need, nice and neat.

As above, you simply need to add the MDi to the gateway.

The controller can be fixed to the top of the glovebox and the lead then runs into the glove box.

If you want it in the armrest then i'd suggest you need to mount the controller under the ashtray.

There are two versions of the MDI, the glovebox version which has a separate controller, and the armrest version which has the controller built in for those lucky enough to have a cd changer in the armrest or are mad enough to retrofit the cd changer armrest

The man knows his stuff!

The glovebox version is rumoured to not be compatible with version "A" RNS-510's.

Thanks Stu + Camel + Pazz  :smiley:

No idea what version of the RNS-510 I have  :ashamed:

When you refer to the glovebox, does the MDI sit where I've currently got my drivers manual/guide, the top little shelf at the top inside of the glovebox?

cameluk:
VW just say that the interface is mounted behind the dash and the USB/Ipod lead is available inside the glovebox

so all you see is ...



I know of people who have a RNS 'A' and the armrest version of the MDI without any issues
