Standard Ed30 head unit.......

JamesP:
Thanks mate, will look into it :)

pudding:
RCD310 can take an aux-in as well as a BT module. Only 50 quid from ebay and looks a lot better than the ancient standard RCD300.

I actually got rid of an RNS510 in favour of an RCD310.  Phones do satnav, and phones boot up instantly, unlike the RNS.  They are overrated, overhyped and overpriced stereos imo, and scumbags nick them.  You need stupid MDI & BT modules to do anything with a phone....and the modules date very quickly because of the crazy pace of phone development and BT versions.

RCD310, MK6 chrome switches, aux in socket, 3.5mm to 3.5mm lead. Done.

JamesP:
Ok this sounds like the best option.
So literally old head unit out, 310 in and aux cable from the rear of the unit to my phone?
Not even bothered about Bluetooth..... 

pudding:
Yep, it’s exactly what I do.  Search ebay for ‘aux-in MK5 golf’ and for a few quid you can get a kit which includes the loom for the radio, and a socket to replace a blank next to the TC button  :happy2:

JamesP:
Oh even better, so just plug the cable in where the blank was, not even into back of the head unit?
