Yep, almost there.

However, today I drove around town with the GPS aerial sitting on the dash. The RNS-D is seeing 8 satellites, so no problem there, however the map position completely wrong. The arrow is behind by a good 300 yards or more, and slightly to one side. Can you calibrate your position on the map using the crosshairs like you can on the VW MFD/MFD2?. I hope its not a bad GPS aerial, don't think it is as the compass display works well.

Tomorrow, I am off to Hertfordshire from Dorset to finish the install and put the car back together. I'll put some pictures up of the install when finished of course, but I am sure you have all seen an A8 with RNS-D a hundred times before.
