Ken1 Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Does anyone know if it is possible to buy and change the nobs on the standard GTI radio on the 05MY to the silver ones on the 06MY? Cheers Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skifly Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 cant help with this one but i want to be able to swop the functionality of the two knobs - the thing is made for crooked euro cars so the volume is on the wrong side!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriswastle Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Straight swap me thinks getting hold of them is a different matter though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edo Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Might be able to help you once my new nav unit comes - my RCD 300 (05 Reg?) has silver knobs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMB Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 just buy a whole new unit on ebay, rcd300's go for about £15 plus postage, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken1 Posted July 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Whats the difference between the RCD 300 and RCD 500 , and which one would I have in my 05MY? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs32 Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 RCD500 has 6-CD changer built in and extra audio adjustment <font color="#666666"> sorry for the blatant plug - have just replaced my RCD500 + soundpack - now for sale (all in unmarked condition) - PM with any sensible offers </font> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edo Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Yikes, not much point me selling my 300 then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AidanR Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 VW don't sell them, I asked them to see if I could replace my satnav grey ones with the newer silver ones. (the nav ones are slightly smaller than the RCD 300) Don't know if a letter to Blaupunct's customer service would help? Might try it myself if I can get round to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 The knobs are different sizes and a slight different fit, its not as simple as a straight swop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AidanR Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Have you swopped yours snoopy? I could just pull the RCD300 ones off too change them, But the satnav ones seem stuck/screwed on from behind or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 No but i have read it in more than one place by different people and seen the photos of them side by side, Sorry i cannot remember were though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
