Summary of Bluetooth Options for RNS510 & RCD510

[sharkablue]

Congrats - start sorting out you music collection into groupd/folders now

haha yeah it will be that or just use my iPhone... I did pay for the MDI so I may aswell use it.

The next thing to get is those LED brake lights...

and then Im also looking for some carbon fibre door mirror caps and front and rear diffusor aswell but that will be a 2011 job I think...

Gotta love how there's always a "next thing"

I'm not sure what my next thing will be - maybe those pedal caps

You'll be able to stream music from your iPhone over bluetooth using the Bluetooth kit.. so no need to connect it up to MDI.

I purchased mine on the 18th.... and hasn't yet arrived. Damn living in the Western side of the country!!!

Hey Pete - have you got it yet ? Mine should have been here by now (ordered 2 days after yours) and the stupid spanish tracking site says it's only just left spain ! (It originally said it left there on 23rd but now it's been updated againwith a much later date). If you still don't have yours, have a whinge back to the seller.

Mine is at the post office waiting. Supposedly they tried to deliver it on the 29th but given that I work all day and only my dogs are home, they wouldn't accept their paw prints as proof that they have my back. The tracking site doesn't seem to update.. I imagine it is all good and well tracking for spanish things in spain but when in australia there may be a slight disjoint in tracking services. Keep your hopes up.. shouldn't take too long now.

Pete - did the Spanish tracking site say for you just that it had left the international departure point and then nothing past that update ?

Hey guys, for us installing the VW Bluetooth under our seats, do we need to have a metel bracket also to have it fitted?

As I said before the only things that came in the box is the Bluetooth box and all the cables and the mic. No Bracket and no foam box.

If anyone knows that the procedure is for installing it under your seat and if you know what the braket part number is, please let us know!

I am under the impression that the Foam cover just hugs tight around the BT Module and then the box velcro's to the carpet but I'll let one of the other guys confirm that. The Foam Box has the VW description of "Bracket".

Yep, put it in myself last weekend and this is correct. You carefully put the BT module into the foam "bracket", no screws, etc needed. In fact, when it's in the bracket and fitted, it'd actually not be touching the carpet/floor anyway, as the bracket is deeper than the unit itself. You need to be careful because it could snap if you force it in, but take your time, it only fits into it one way. There are velcro bits glued on to it, which hold the carpet fine. It fits very snuggled into it's position and you'd never know it was there.

Part number should be a page or two back in the thread, I posted it up about 2 weeks ago.

Yep - and if you look back at the previous info, you will see that 2 or 3 of us have bought the foam bracket from Aussie Dealers as a spare part for $27.10. It'll take about 10 days to arrrive as they have to order it in from the regional parts centre in Singapore
