Post by: sam25man on May 04, 2014, 09:36:53 pm
What does everyone think of the aux inputs you put into a standard stereo you get in golfs such as this:

Any thoughts would be helpful

Looks OEM, the little flap opens to reveal the aux input. It works in my RCD510 no problems

^^what he said! looks like a better bit of kit.

It also depends on what your looking for, an aux input doesn't give you any control of your music.

For the moment i think having Aux will do, ill leave a old mp3 player and use that probably
