RNS-E Sat Nav Audi A4 B7

[chev]

Im getting an RNS-E SatNav (navigation plus) fitted next week into a single DIN unit. It's a "professional" job including the conversion to double DIN.

The unit is reconditioned and in good working order (not yet seen the unit):

1. Is there anything i should ask or look out for before installation?

Hope you can help, as i dont want anything to crop up later and then find out on here, that it's a common fault etc.

Cheers in advance.

double din conversion

double din cage, qround £50

If you already have double din then its the rnse unit and slight modification for K wire postion

The double DINconversion is in the price, including unit, all in £600.

They are using the same air con unit and i believe they file it down so it can be moved lower to fit the satnav.

Then lets hope they take thier time.....

Might sound sad, but cant wait.

Borrowed my mates RS4 Avant the other day, n whilst i had the power of a 4.2 V8 at my foot, most of the time i was messing about with the Nav..............................lol

Had this done to mine recently and i have to say coupled with the BOSE sound system it has to be the best upgrade i have ever had done to any of the cars i have owned!!!

I just got my A4 done by OEM Retrofit in Bradford. They really did the wonderful job and looked after me (RNS-E fitted inc Single din to double din conversion). Also, I believe they are cheapest (£600). It was worth travelling from London, although I had to stay the hotel the night before (Holiday-Inn £25 booked last week). So I spent around £660 altogether. If you want one, you should go to them
