Assuming the advert is correct, then yes they should be suitable.
The RNS-Es do have a slightly different surround colour to the D2 plastics. Not enough for it to bother me, but I know some have used Kiwi boot polish to darken it, or you could try some gel style bumper black treatment?

Perhaps you mean the newer units which are clearly lighter and grey in colour as can be seen by ebay photos? I can't imagine needing to boot polish an already black plastic, or for that matter anything in the car. Not exactly a fitting finish for a D2. Perhaps matching the colour and airbrushing would be more acceptable. Have a look at Ian's post 14 in this thread, the unit is pretty much identical in colour. Only maybe the finish is a tiny tiny shade more matt than RNS-D. That's not going to bother me. Last edited by Goran; 29th April 2020 at 09:27 AM. |

I only mention it as I think Amar had done that with his car, back in the day.
Here's what mine looked like (earlier RNS-E unit) attached (apols that one is lopsided - it was the right way round when I uploaded it!) The colour difference never bothered me, but it is there A

Hello guys, I have recently tried to fit an RNS-E to replace existing RNS-D to the 2000 S8, all the adapters were there, tried to source CAN from both old TMC plug as well as the pins in the instrument cluster but the satnav is not receiving the correct signal and does not work correctly. With CAN wires connected, satnav will not let me in passed the pin code screen, pin code is correct, after I disconnect the CAN pin code works but then there is a typical CAN misinformation as not remembering the pin code, no illumination with lights on etc.
Also, not sure if related but maybe, I got these 2 error codes in the instrument cluster : 01336 Data Bus for Comfort System 80-00 - Single Wire Operation 01311 Data-Bus information No communication Any valuable suggestions on how to get this working would be highly appreciated. Thanks and happy new year to all the A8 forum users! ![]() Last edited by smoothcoupe; 3rd January 2021 at 11:22 AM. |

Is it a mk1 or mk2 RNS-e? The mk2 is coded to the VIN which it gets from the cluster I believe, so just the code isn't enough.
