Title: RNS 510 and parking sensors
Post by: Crossy112 on May 02, 2013, 04:05:52 pm: HI,
I am considering upgrading my RCD300 to an RNS and i was wondering if it would work with my parking sensors. My car is an 07 GTI and they are factory fitted sensors, is the type of sensor too old? does the RNS need a specific module? . I don't have an MFSW or Highline so just wondering what other intergration i would get from the unit

Unless you have a polar fis advanced that can emulate the sensors and obstacles on the rns510's screen.

Interesting, I never knew such a thing existed!
