On page 42 of the manual it refers to an (optional) Hybrid TV receiver.

Anyone know the VAG part number for the TV receiver?

To DanGB: is it the Seat version of RNS510 you showed pictures of? I saw it on the seat website and it was without sd-card reader, but you have it.

we got the sat nav in our existing car ('or leon) and the dash does look a lot better and works very well. however we haven't had it on our new cupra which comes in march because the tom tom we have (for my van) is a lot better and easier to use, also a sh1t load cheaper.

Personally from a practical point of view I have a Tomtom one V3,which was 200 quid when I bought it, its small and I can take it from vehicle to vehicle. On the other hand the one that DanGB has fitted looks brilliant and he has done a fantastic job.

tom tom is good, but you cant have 2000 songs or more on the hardisk, you cant watch dvd or have the tv tuner, rear comera and better sound in car.

tom tom looks very cheep. I have my rns ready at home but its vw version, so still waiting when I will have seat versions for sale.

Hi Tommy,

I really like the idea of connecting a rear camera to the RNS510.
How difficult is it? Would greatly appreciate your help as I am tempted to get the sat nav.

Thanks, gizlork

I never did it, I just heard about that, I am not sure if the rear camera from touareg or Q7 will works with rns 510, try to ask on www.vwnavi.com
