Right.

Decided on the RNS510 for my polo. I am going to be buying it and fitting within a couple of weeks. Is there any tutorials or anyone who has had a similar experience of swapping the RCD210 for an RNS510?

I was thinking of this one:

I don't believe it can be as easy as the instructions on the ebay page surely there is a lot of additional wiring required for the GPS and other controls?

Cheers

Bear in mind this is a Style RNS510.. It is not an official VW part.

Plugging the radio into the antennas you currently have is easy as plugging it in.

However if you need additional like a GPS antenna then yes it will need to be installed with cables run from rear of the car to behind the dash.

That's not an RNS510 but a knock-off

Can you buy genuine rns510 radios without paying thousands from VW?

Yes, it is possible but you should keep a critical eye for legality, since there are many stolen ones on the market.
