Hey guys,

Can any one me please, I am thinking of buying a A4 S4 navigation RNS-E sat nav GPS system on e-bay with the fitting kit etc . Are they a good kit? I have been told this unit is a plug and play and going by the standard of the build quality and reliability of Audi it should be good any advise welcome good or bad. Its for a4 Avant B7.

Cheers

hi there, i`ve just fitted a rns-e to my b7 a4, i bought this off ebay, is yours single or double din stereo at the minute? mine was single din so fitting was a little more intense, involved a bit of cutting but did it in a couple of hours, if yours it double din it should be really straight forward,
good luck

really good, used it a couple of times, the tmc ( traffic monitoring system ) is especially good, i`m looking at fitting a dvd interface to mine so i can play dvd`s and keep my little lad quiet, i got mine from multims_ltd on ebay if your still looking for one

Found one for 429.00 including fitting kit, cd europe map 2009 etc I hope to buy today if he answers a few question I am very apprehensive about if there is a problem with the unit as the guy selling has a couple of bad feed backs in regards to units not working but several with good feed backs about similar units http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/imgs/12.gif

I'm extremely sceptical about the prices some sellers seem able to offer these units for. Personally I would go to a reputable outfit for peace of mind.


Gareth at www.vwcruise.com is excellent.

i paid 429 for mine and it`s spot on, no problems, but i agree with the previous comment, i`d tread carefully, especially the ones from abroad
