Rnse install so far
Well it's been a few weeks since I last updated the thread so thought I d quickly mention what's been happening...
The first thing that was the real stumbling block was the fact that rns e and hence peripherals such as bluetooth and digital tv expect a can bus signal to work...problem pf a8 doesnt have canbus!!!! Plan A was to update the instrument cluster...which turned out to be a very boring and unfruitful task...which provided its own difficulty....main issue wit trying upgrade...which I believe is impossible unless u r familiar with can bus programming and can program microprocessors is that the rev counter...gear selection works with from messages via canbus to the drivetrain high and low connections... I didn't realise this until I was almost there with the change...but along the way I blew a random...which caused its own problems....so all in all not a good plan!!!!!! Plan b. which thankfully has worked...leave instrument cluster alone and get canbus emulator from kufatec....this lets the rns e know when car is switched on and when lights are on also....very usefull and provides the signal fro Bluetooth to work tooo....thank god this worked.... Following on I am now installing the Bluetooth module...which isn't too bad until u get to the vagcom coding bit...will explain in more detail later.... Things left to do now are 1. Wire in reverse feed, gala speed signal, alarm ground wire 2.fitgps antenna in boot as wont get passed double glazing Long term worry is the time signal which usually Comes from instrument cluster...but I am hoping the rns e picks this up automatically via gps Following the above bits I might be home and dry...but I am tempted by reverse camera and iPhone docking station.... |

Awesome work there, Ranj. It'll be worth the hassle when you're all done.

I've described what I did to fit an aftermarket replacement for my failed boot-lid original.
Cable routed into boot under the rubber lip seal - dead easy as long as you go sideways. Here's a picture showing "dead" original and it's excellent near-invisible replacement: |

Is that like the Tom Tom 'extension' outside antenna?
I've also noticed that you're PF has a different type of heated rear screen to mine...

What's different about the rear screen?
I'm not sure if it incorporates the radio aerial. I also have the usual complex vertical wire aerial on the boot. With 4 signals to deal with - radio, TV, phone & GPS - the only one I know for sure is the GPS. The GPS antenna is just one I bought on eBay - powered type with a long lead. It has a common type of connector which is inevitably different to the one Audi use (rare/unavailable) so a bit of wiring and soldering was involved. |

gps antenna
I actually found that when I put the antenna in the boot, I was still picking up 3 or 4 satellites....also another member believes that cos the rear windscreen is different to the front it is possible to place the antenna under the rear parcel shelf also...(I haven't tried this, but will see...as I going to remove the rear parcel to feed the wires through for the bluetooth kit....)
