RNS510 - Swapping ipod prep for Armrest MDI.
mo:
Hi guys
Have been looking at getting an MDI for my newly fitted RNS510.The question i have is i have the factory fitted ipod prep already in my arm rest but cant find any info as to whether i will need a new harness or if i just plug the MDI into my exhisting ipod prep harness ?
Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Cheers rich.Was hoping that was the case.
JPC:
Well ive done the old ipod prep to MDI switch and the cabling was entirely different with different connectors.
Sorry to piss on the bonfire, but i though i should let you know my experience with it! ;)

Ok, thanks for pipping up JPC, and sorry Mo for the bad info like I said I hadn't done it but something I read lead me to believe it was the same :ashamed:
Glad I hadnt ordered the 6 cd cable like I had planned. JPC would the best solution then be to do the Kufatec adapter, or is there a VW part number you have used to wire these up in the center armrest?
