Hi Guys,

New on the forum and as the title says, would the RNS510 with Nav be a straight swap to replace the RCD510 unit in my rocco? Or if were to purchase the new head unit, would i need to purchase anything else to perform the swap?

Thanks for any help :)

It's a straight swap but you may need some coding done using VCDS or Vagcom to have the sat nav info display on the MFD.

Obviously, you'll need a GPS antenna. The majority of people who retro-fit just locate it above the unit under the dash.

You'll also need the security code for the RNS510.
