All Things Mk5 > Sat Nav and Car Audio

Are all the golfs headunits the same shape??

(1/2) > >>

jaffa666:
might sound like a silly question but was just wondering if all the headunits available for the Mk5 golf are the same shape, was looking at getting a satnav unit for the car but dont wanna go buy one then find out its not as simple as old one out, new one in.

sorry for the silly question, and any help would be much appreciated.

ollie288:
Yes mate it will fit, they are all the same shape.  :happy2:

jaffa666:
thanks, thought they would be but just wanted to double check.
cheers mate

jaffa666:
seen a cpl on ebay for about 300quid and others on there for nearly double that, not sure what the difference is.
any1 any info on this?

Only thing to watch out for is that they arent the squared off ones that fit in the Touran, any with a rounded bezel will fit, and if your looking at an RNS510 the easiest way to tell is based on the position of the SD card slot.  Golf RNS510 SD slot is down the bottom of the unit, Touran SD card slot is on the left of the screen.

Could be the difference between the older and newer nav units, the MFD2 which is the older unit will have buttons along the bottom and isnt touch screen.  The newer MFD3 (RNS510) will just have 8 buttons 4 on each side and 2 knobs, as this unit is touch screen based.

The other unit you mihgt be seeing is the RCD510 whihc doesnt have the NAV but instead has a 6 CD in dash multi-changer, this only has 3 buttons on each side of the screen.

MFD2


MFD3 RNS510


RCD510


And Touran RNS510, square bezel and different SD card location
