Gallardo Head Unit

[Yetski]

I'm thinking of changing the head unit in my Gallardo, as when I priced for getting Bluetooth & an ipod connection fitted, thought that there must be something better out there for the money.
Does anyone have any recomendations?

The Gallardo nav / head unit is an Audi RNS-e

It already has slots for media behind the screen so not sure why you'd want an iPod connection?

Bluetooth can be fitted by adding the VW/Audi Bluetooth module for £250 and then it all integrates and works seamlessly .

There is a guy on here who specialises in it and was great.

Personaly I'd stick with OEM anything aftermarket looks a bit, well, aftermarket , is unlikely to integrate as well and will put people off come resale IMHO

Thanks Bertie,

I know what you're saying, and I will keep all of the standard gear for re-sale, but most of my mileage is european, I want something I can update maps easily, just plug my ipod in without having to put it all on SD's and all the rest.

Cheers

Dave

I have personally used these guys they were very good for retrofitting ipod and bluetooth connectivity http://www.oemretrofits.co.uk/index.html.

Or prehaps one of these units for a full on change - they are highly rated from what I have read http://www.dynavin.com/products/product_dnv_a4.php

then leave the head unit alone and buy a nokia smartphone and use ovi maps.... the most amazing free satnav you can use.... i downloaded claifornia and nevada maps before my holiday, worked fine, and all maps are regularly updated, all for free, and searches can be offline as well...

Or buy the updated DVD?

COOL.

OP - call Greg at Auto Audio as they do a lot of Lambos and their fit and finish is perfect.

I had the F930BT fitted in my Porsche though there is a model above it - the sound is stunning and the Nav blows my TomTom away (surprisingly):
