RCD510 Up For Grabs

But what about warranty on the 510 replacement ?

I don't know, if there was a problem with it are they going to check if the car came with it given it's OEM?

My 118TSI came with MDI and I upgraded the RCD310 to a RCD510 I bought on eBay. No problem at all and everything works fine. It is a great upgrade in terms of looks and usability, particularly for iPod navigation.

I'm thinking of doing the same... how did you go about installation though ?
Can you provide links or photos to help prepare me for the installation ?
I wan't to make sure it will work before I buy the RCD-510 or RNS-510 on eBay.

I actually got a professional to do the job as I had two amps and a sub-woofer done at the same time. I understand the actual head-unit is a simple swap (fascia pops off, four screws and away you go). I'm sure there are threads on here about it.
