    $2500 is the list price, I'm sure many dealers around sydney would do it for you that price. The JKU.com.au guy in the thread above will sell you the unit for $1300 (version H is the best), and it's pretty easy to install (you might be able to get a dealer to put it in for a couple hundred). There is zero issue warranty wise because it's a VW genuine part.

    Dealers are just like franchises, if the one you're at is behaving like a muppet, there is no obligation to go back to them after getting your car.

    Thanks heaps man, yeah, I have spent way too many sleepless nights trawling these forums about this GPS. I think I'd LOVE to install it myself, but I just don't want to break something in the process.

    As much as I would enjoy patting a hole through my back from the sense of achievement of installing my own GPS into the car, no matter how many hours I stare at the VCDS coding pages and vague references between which numbers mean which functions and which devices - I don't think I'm going to go there and will just have to enlist the help to code it for me.

    Next step after installing the GPS is probably tearing out that bluetooth unit sprouting forth from the dashboard, and putting in something a bit more subtle, like one of those under-the-seat arrangements I keep hearing about.

    And then maybe looking to acquiring a set of 16" or 17" rims to complete my machine. Maybe much later.

    Its super easy for someone familiar with VCDS to fully install the RNS, they just go to the CAN Gateway -> Installation list -> Tick Navigation

    As with the BT screen, the cradle it is in cannot be removed, but you can take out the screen. You'll need VCDS for that too, more details are in my signature below.

    You can also grab a dock for your phone online, read this post for more info.
