Thanks.

Nope. My dealer said 3M1 970 161 AC does not exist (Danish VW), and the German VW dealer I called also said that it does not exist.

my dealer also said that this 3M1 cable does not exist (Portugal VW).. the 5M1 will not work with the 1K8 camera?

Lead part number and camera below, taken from the invoice used on the last one I fitted.

Item 1and 5.

Yes, but those are the Golf parts.

I do realise that they fit perfectly, but are male-female instead of female-male.

Will be able to connect the camera cable from the Golf to the camera of the Scirocco making change in the cable pins if possible what changes have to do...?
Thanks.

As far as I understand, that would be male to male.

Just stick with Golf cable & Golf camera.

(I have not had them in my hands, so any corrections are welcome)

I might be confused by what your saying but the Golf camera is completely different, I.e built into the boot badge ?

You are thinking of the complete camera assembly, as pictured in the OP

I am referring to five posts above, with partnumbers for the Gof 5 camera without housing. As pictured in the Roccopedia article.

I already have the camera's original SCI I dont have the cable to conet the camera to the RNS i can´t get the cable 3M1 making changes in the cable 5M1 may i be able to make the job.
Excuse my English Thanks

Option 1:
Return Scirocco Camera
Buy Golf 5 Camera & Golf 5 cable

Option 2:
Buy Golf 5 cable and cut cable and solder it onto Scirocco camera.

Can not return because they offered me two I'll have to buy the plug that connects to the cable Scirocco seen the plug of the chamber is different.
And how I remembered it thanks again

I've been asking in another topic about updating my rcd to the latest rns. However I've seen various ones for sale and I can't see the necessary connection for the rear view camera which I plan to do also. Can anyone tell me what I should be looking for so that I can add the camera at a later stage.

All the RNS's should be able to take the camera with the right Firmware, however i would personally prefer to have the latest C version with the star button and new screen.

The right firmware? Did yours have the connection on the rear for the camera? I know the screen is better on the latest versions but what's special about the star button?

Nothing is better about the button, its just a way of spotting the better screen C version , ps mine has the connection for the camera, every genuine RNS510 should have the connection for the camera, for firmware if you get the latest unit it will have the right FW on it.

Thanks for that. One other thing. Can someone explain the confusion over the two choices of camera, either golf or scirocco. Why would anyone have ordered the parts for a golf when there are specific part numbers for the scirocco?

I too have tried to just order the 3M1 aerial lead and it is not a part number available to order directly. Anyone thinking of this project should just stick to ordering the golf one to save anymore confusion.

Just received my 3w0 parts and I've just tried a first fit. Cant seem to fit the camera in the holder then attach the clip to hold the camera in place. There are two plastic cylinders on the back of the camera that stops the clip going far enough into the holder for it to catch. Do you have to drill holes in the clip or cut the cylinders off the camera?

Cut the two pins off flush with the camera.

Thanks for that. Did you have any luck with the wiring loom diagram from your friend?
