cutting, chopping and installing i can do.... electrics are not my strong point :ashamed:

If you use the proper 'repair wires' you can fit them directly to the fuse panel so it looks a pukka job.

Its pretty easy to create the two looms which are required. I've got this far, just need the penny's for the camera unit.
Just invovles a bit of splicing into wires, soldering insultating.

BUT, it would of been nice to see a VWNavi reference in the above post. Especially the VWNavi member CamelUK who alongside myself and a couple of other members have spent a long time researching this. CamelUK has also wasted a fair bit of cash on VW parts.
Please give credit where its due.
There is a guide which CamelUK has made and a topic on VWNavi thats 18 pages long. The guide has all the parts you need and a how to with picture. If someone pm's me I will send the link or email you it. This is only because his website may be overloaded if I just post the link.

Yes, thats right. Because all the Kufatec (mk5 golf) kits used a control module we presumed the VW part would be on ETKA. So we spent a while searching through the latest ETKA updates for a MK6 control unit. Of which we never found.
It wasnt unit a member called golfgti5 managed to obtain a wiring diagram from his local VW tech; albeit in dutch! And even without google translate the diagrams alone showed us that there was no control module for the MK6 RVC (rear view camera). The video out was already RGB signal and went straight into the RNS-510.
For those who like wiring diagrams heres the english variant courtesy of lala30 on VWNavi.

I've not done anything to my RNS yet but I've been paying great attention to CamelUK's stuff - he is the man (and I'm sure you are too)
