Lot's of options, all depends, as above, on whether you want to go OEM or aftermarket along with what your budget is and what you intend it to do other than nav.

RNS510 is a very good unit. Very popular, its a VW part. Fairly easy to fit with a basic understanding and a few tools. There are also people on here like SqueegUk or Eddie who would fit this for you  :)
