RNS 510 Antenna

(1/4) > >>

jd_30:
I'm thinking of finally taking the plunge and ordering an RNS 510 unit from Tommy over on VW NAVI (thanks for the recommendation 182 Blue!)

Question is, although the unit comes supplied with an antenna for behind the dash can I get the shark fin style from the dealer and fit this to the car so it's a proper installation??

Has anybody tried this and if so do I need to order anything else from the delaer aside to the antenna itself??

Thanks

JD

i think you will need to get the cable too, and run it to the aerial, its a bit of a tedious job so most people just use the little plug in one like the one Tommy will send you

182_blue:
ps here are the part numbers (this is for the newer nav and radio aerial as in pic below)


Base- 1K0 035 501 F
Rod Type Ariel- 1J0 035 849 A
Gps Antenna Cable- 000 098 656

the aerial tommy sends is perfect. Hidden under the vent and always has a great signal. Don't over complicate this part, it's just fine as it is :happy2:

true, plus it wont draw thieves attention to the fact you have nav in the car, this is basically what stopped me doing it
