Title: Rcd 150 DAB
Post by: Yellow4eva on October 18, 2016, 02:15:48 pm
Another quick question on this,
I've brought an rcd150 DAB head unit to fit in my golf mk 5 07 reg.
Am I right in saying all I need a DAB arial and a microphone for Bluetooth phone conetivity? Or do I need to buy a module also. I'm getting someone to fit it just want to know what parts I need.. if someone could list them.
Thanks in advance
Sb

You do need all you thought plus the phone module and foam module carrier for under seat location.

So I've now had this fitted!
The dab works fine but I'm struggling to get my phone connected.
It won't let me select the BT MODE !
My phone can't even find the head unit to connect too.
Anyone had any simler issues
Thanks
Scott

Is the part number for your head unit really "RCD150". Ive done a lot of reading about VW head units up until getting an RNS315 a few weeks back, and thats not a number I recognise. Unless you meant RCD510? In which case it does not have bluetooth built in (only the RNS315 does) and you will require a separate bluetooth module which connects up to the head unit and microphone.

I guess the reason it wont let you select BT mode is because there is no physical tranceiver anywhere at the moment.

A google search should quickly clarify this for you as there are plenty of threads out there about this. Try searching for "1k8 035 730 D". Not sure if thats the exact one you need, but thats the kind of thing.. youll have to do some research as I also believe there are different type which offer different levels of functionality.
