I looked at various options on my PF which had RNS-C but gave up, FL is the regular RNS-D.
IIRC you have an early FL with RNS-C? What version of the DIS do you have, the early "blocky" one or the later finer colour one?!
__________________
2003 D2 FL S8. Irish Green Pearl/Beige. Solar sunroof, auto-dim mirrors, electric rear seat functions and extended leather. Ski hatch retrofit. Aftermarket reversing camera. DVB-T and XCarlink now removed as redundant.
2016 Volvo V40 T5 Cross Country (4WD) with ALL the toys including adaptive cruise etc. etc. Osmium Grey with Blonde/Charcoal leather interior. Polestar performance "optimisation". (Even rarer than a D2 S8!) Oh, and a brand new engine at just under 30,000 miles on the factory one!
Finally: gone, but not forgotten.....
1998 D2 PF S8. Agate Grey/Platinum. Every option (I think) except electric rear seats, Tiptronic steering wheel, ski hatch, towbar & dimming door mirrors.
e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later)
1998 (very early) Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec; ABS/TCS, Heated screen/mirrors, Aircon. Added Auto-dim mirror, Leather seats, Trip computer, Cruise control, OEM Ford SatNav with CD changer.
And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

Struggling to remember but I think the diversity connection on the "D" is either not there or different on the "C"

Hmm I'll have a look and let you know it's definitely a colour one but not sure if you'd call it blocky or not
I'll take a pic tomorrow evg and post it

just checked back my e-mail from when I bought mine, turns out the RNS C I bought was from an A6, confirmed that via the part number, the socket missing is for the diversity antenna apparently, which amplifies the radio signal in the 8 as it has a window mounted aeriel, the 6 doesnt I think, there is a difference in the size of the front panel and it wouldnt fit an 8 anyway, so you could be OK if you get one from an 8 Neil
