Best after-market GPS / DVD Head unit ?

[omb]

I have both the Zenec NC-2010 (Amarok) and the RNS510 (Tiguan)

I would go with the RNS510 in the Tiguan because its cheaper on ebay & the screen does perform better in the sun.
However I would only do this if the Tiggy already has OEM VW Blue Tooth which will come standard with the new tigs.

If you have money to burn the Zenec has a much more instinctive interface and many more features like Divx, BT
etc. It also works with the MFD Data. I find satnav alot better on the Zenec however it has bugs in the current Satnav firmware.

Zenec NC-2010 OZ Price $2k
Zenec NC-2010 UK around $1300
RNS510 here $2500
RNS510 Lithunia Special $800-$1400.

I'm sorry I have to ask, why don't you get the RNS510? (just curious, that's all).

I have heard that it is very slow in the navigation department, and a nightmare to use when you're looking for a particular song. Also, it doesn't come with Bluetooth built into the unit.

I sort of agree with your comments chylld.

We have the RNS510 in the Tiguan, and it is a little laggy compared to the RCD-510 in the R. It also takes a bit longer to "boot up" (I imagine because it looks for satellites). So there's just those few extra moments before music starts playing and/or you're able to work the MDI.

Plus - the maps on it are ANCIENT.

If u have the RCD510, I would just leave it as is and get standalone Sat Nav unit.

Whatever you do, avoid china units. More headache than the savings from eBay rns510.

ive been hunting around for the pioneer unit.

Seems like its a uk only thing at the moment.

It seems like at the moment its quite a hassle to get aftermarket stuff, i might put the stereo on hold for abit till some more tech becomes avail and start getting APR gear
