Hi all,

I'm haveing an issue with my install. javascript:emoticon(':cry:')
Crying or Very sad

When inserting the RNS-E into the dashboard, it's hard to get it locked in.
When it finally goes in, there is a gap at the top of the unit between the cup holders, and the top of the NAv unit.

I'm pretty sure this gap should not be there.

The issue looks like either the DIN aperture in my car, or the unit.

I've published 2 photos here (hope it works!!):

Notice that the NAV unit on the right, has a locking flange in the middle as well as the top and bottom, while the original Symphony 2 unit only has locking flanges at the top and bottom.

We can see here in the middle of the DIN housing there is a peice sticking out (not sure how to describe it.

Anyone have any idea if both these parts are meant to be like that?

Thanks,
Ray

Hi

I've updated the following picture with where I think the problem is.
Can someone confirm if there rns-e has a tab where I've highlighted, or if it is flat, like the symphone II unit?

Thanks,
Ray

I think you could be right. It's looking like a nightmare!!
How can I verify if this unit is for an A6?

Is the only way a test fit in an A6?
Anyone have one near London UK that they want to try this unit on?

Thanks,
Ray

Thanks for that.
I'm certainly going back to the seller about this. Not sure how much good thats going to do me. This was handled by a friend who bought the unit while on holiday in Poland for me.

I asked the question here before about model numbers and the differences. I'm confident that once the unit is "coded for the faceplate" that it will take "speed over CAN" or "Speed over Gala" as needed.

Anyway, thanks for your advice.
