I also hated the RCD300 system in there - the lack of MP3 support really grates me!

So a trip to @olsen-72 was arranged and an RCD510, along with an armrest MDI KIT and Bluetooth kit were fitted oh and a Can gateway too!  I must add - great guy and great job too!

I decided against the RNS510 as I couldn't justify the cost for the NAV. Previously I had a RNSE in my A3 and no offence but the Audi system is miles ahead of the VW version minus the touchscreen. And even though I found the Audi system pretty decent I would almost always use my phone for the nav. So it would have been a wasted ~£200 quid for me.

Cheers buddy! Good to be back too!

I must say having opted for the DSG this time around it feels like I'm in the GTI for the first time! I'm amazed at the difference!

So the next things on my (relatively small) list for the moment:

Upgrading the interior switches to the MK6 chrome versions (ordered) - the old ones (especially the light switch) are looking pretty tired / dated.

And also changing the hazard light switch to the cherry version (ordered)

Then a new kitchen! but I don't think you guys are too interested in that.

So I also fixed an earlier mistake from trying to fit my MDI kit in myself. I scratched the gear surround with the screws holding the ashtray in.

So I used my mums help and the guide by @monte in he's build thread to "fix" my errors.
