Hello I hope someone can help me because this is driving me mad. A few months ago someone broke into my car and stole my radio the police say they do this for the sat nav chip so they can chip sky boxes... Any I am having a nightmare replacing it, Ive bought an RCD 510 & RNS 510 but they dont work with or seem to have bluetooth or sat nav.
I had added a photo of my old one, please can anyone ID what the model is?
P.S I now have a RCD 510 & RNS 510 for sale if anyone wants to buy.

Re: Stereo stolen need help with the replacement
The unit in the photo is an RNS315, which has an integrated Bluetooth module.
RNS510 unit you have does have sat nav functionality but requires an external module, normally located under the driver's seat, to give Bluetooth functionality.
RCD510 does not have sat functionality, has an integrated 6CD changer and requires the above mentioned module to give Bluetooth functionality.
The link below is a good comparison tool of the various units

If you fancy something different but remaining OEM, have a look at the Kenwood headunits in the link below;

Re: Stereo stolen need help with the replacement
I’ve got an RNS-315 for sale that I took out of mine when I upgraded to MIB-II if you want to go back to the original?
I think someone else has one for sale in the classifieds on here too.
