Hello again

I know it has been covered loads but I have a crappy mp3 headunit in my2010 Leon fr I believe it's a facelift version? and want to upgrade to a unit with Bluetooth phone calling I have tried the android 1s lasted 1 week before they broke and tried a xtrons also faulty sound only 1 side so I would rather go the factory route but what is involved? Or does any1 recommend something else like pioneer or Kenwood? Thanks for any help.

Hi mate, i had the same HU as you in my FL Cupra, got rid of that and now got an RCD 510. I didn't really need satnav as I have TomTom and a mobile, it's great, touch screen and I've got a hard drive connected to it via USB so all my songs are at a touch of a button and quick too. I have BT under the seat so it was a simple plug and play.

Only real reason why i didn't get one was that at the time, they were all around the £400 mark so was way too much for the budget at the time, sounds like you got a bargain though.

Check out the pioneer f9210 and 9310 if you haven't got the rns 315 already... I got a pumpkin android headunit, been working for a year plus, has had some problems but all were sorted when speaking to their customer service. Its just a little slow when loading apps now, sat nav etc. Tempted with the Pioneer headunits as can also hook up my rca rear cam. The Kenwoods look good but I dont think they have streaming capabilities where as the pioneers do.
