Lol, after reading this I thought yeah, fair point...but.... mine has just failed.

Without having to remove myself and posting it to australian dist, it'll go to the dealer and they will fix it. simple as that. if its s/w issue it'll get fixed, if its something worse, then warranty will cover.. three years after purchase.

Lol well at least it worked out for you. There are local installers who stock the RNS-510 locally though for a (reasonable) premium over eBay units. JKU is one example, they are a sponsor here. So there won't be any posting required from you. It's the aftermarket ANS series I offer that will need self-installation, with price about half of a local RNS-510. Although this may change in the future and I plan to get local installers on board.

Also don't forget if you get a clueless dealer (which happens quite often) they most likely can't solve your SW issues. Plus I've heard stories of the dealer taking apart the dash very unprofessionally and damaging trim. Sure you can push them to replace it etc but if it's hassle-free you're after, it's not guaranteed with the dealer at all, you'll still be leaving it up to luck. Maybe you'll decide it's worth it after all, but my point is that the only thing the dealer has going for them is 3 years warranty on the unit, and to me (and I would think most others) there is no way in hell that is worth over $1,000.
