Superb! I really like that! :congrats:

Awesome stuff. List of parts would be helpful to other members, lots of people interested in this mod.
Congrats on getting it working!!! :congrats:

been wanting to do this for ages, the reason I've had an rns sitting in it's box in the dining room for ages :party:
share the knowledge dude :drinking:

GreAt stuff matey. I'll be ordering this once the overtime picks up
-
Very nice !!
I love the silver, looks very shiny and cleeean ! :drool: :drool: :drool:

yes but this is not the original vw one this is kufatec's version!!!
i'm not saying there's anything wrong with there kit,i just prefer oem :happy2:
-
Errr, great....
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.

I've had a look thru that post for the past few months. Good read
-

The Kufatec kit will not show the yellow guidelines (unless they've revised this since I last looked) and is also considerably more expensive than the OEM parts from VW will cost you.
-
OKay.....now nice and slowly.....give us a guide of costs and step-by-step instructions.
Last I heard over at vwnavi, no one had managed to get any of the kits to work in a mk5.

If you had given me a chance i would have def put a massive thanks to all on vw navi especially camelUK(barry whom iv'e been speaking to everyday on a mobile about this mod)
the reason for not mentioning camelUK was that i did not know if he was a member on this site and wanted to make sure i put a thank you on the ukmkivs site that i knew he was a member of :mad:

What is the approx cost?

Lol I used to read all RNS threads until about August. Then the site went down and I haven't bothered to check since.
Soo....gonna cost around £250 for parts and requires some hacking away at the boot and some dodgy wiring! :scared:
-
look ace, I would like to have that just to say that I have it, I don't mind turning my head over my shoulder when reversing (teasing!!!)
-
:congrats: :congrats: :congrats: on making me look like a selfish :booty:
No problem.
He could of quite easily kept it quiet. Just like a Spainish (ceramicax) & Russian (TallioN) member have on VWNavi.
Approx cost is £250 plus a few repair wires. The following parts are needed...
- 5K0827469R New rear badge with internal camera £214.43
- 5M1970161AC Cable between badge and RNS510 £36.44
- 3B0972722 4 pin connector for camera £2.85
- 4B0973712 4 pin controller for badge £2.63
- 1J0973802 2 pin connector to original wiring harness £1.43
- 000979131 Repair wire (3 required) £2.18
- 000979020 Repair wire (1 required)
-
What would dealers charge for this if they could do it?
I don't mind wiring but I'm so cack-handed at the mechanical stuff that I'd probably bugger up the chopping off of the boot.
-
Think of how bad you might think you are stealth, times that by 3.142 and that how much a crap job the dealers would do. IMO of course. At pazz...so the "control unit" side of things is all taken care of by the camera unit itself?
-

That's certainly something I gathered reading the thread over at vwnavi, which means the rest is just wiring.
As for dealers, not all do a bad job but I guess with time limitations, they'd be a bit rushed.
Hmmm....anyone wanna offer to fit mine if I pay them?
-
I'll do it for £100 :happy2:

So, power wise, how is this fused? does the fusebox need to be modified? i would assume it would
cutting, chopping and installing i can do.... electrics are not my strong point :ashamed:

It probably take power off an already fused switch live vc

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

You're right you can. :laugh: :wink:

Enquired at my stealer about the cost of the Camera, and using the part number given earlier in this thread does not compute.

Sorry I should of mentioned the "ULM" part. But if your techy at VW knew what he was doing he would of completed the part number for you. THe other version is for Japanese only cars.

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.

Golfman, fancy doing mine :happy2:
nice job

At pazz...so the "control unit" side of things is all taken care of by the camera unit itself?
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)
-
So, power wise, how is this fused?
The wiring diagram I mentioned in the post above shows that the MK6 uses a 5A fuse (component SC16). Could do this a few ways. Including tapping into the original fuse box in the footwell. Or finding another live???
EDIT: Just remembered I have this in my bookmarks which is a DIY guide to adding a 5A into the footwell fusebox.

Deffo gonna consider this mod! :D

As I said in the other thread Lee if I had a GTi I would be doing this.
-
The only bit that needs to be cut is the rear wiper motor leg? Nothing else needs to be changed? (excluding wiring)
Cheers
-
From what I've seen you need to cut the inner skin of the tailgate.

Ahhh that doesn't sound very good. :signLOL:
I have read through the link you sent me and all I could see was the wiper motor leg. Does anyone know what exactly needs to be done as I dont want to be chopping my car to bits! :grin:
-
I don't think it's a huge amount you need to cut out.
Perhaps you should read the guide again :wink:
-
Only chopping involved is....
- Squaring off a section of the boot lid inner lining
- One arm of the Rear Wiper motor
-
Right, so is there a step by step idiots guide?
Or is there only a long thread with a few part numbers and steps in it?
