Upgrading from Bolero to Columbus?

[kalnak]

Heya.

I'm about to buy a Columbus RNS-510 unit and have a few questions.

I've read around on several forums and just wanna make sure that I wont end up with a unit not working or car problems.

Is it just plug and play or do I need to use VCDS as well? Some ppl are talking about CANBUS. Is that something I have to worry about or is it older cars?

I've seen that the newest unit is LED instead of LCD. Is there a version that is better then other? Which one is it recommended to buy?

My car is a Skoda Superb MK2 -2011.

It´s plug´n´play, but you will need VCDS to code the car to navigation. Go for the newer LED model, the display it brighter and it´s a little faster. Oh, btw, send your Bolero to me

Perfect!

I've just ordered a LED model and the VCDS with HEX-USB+Can Interface

Dont you have the Bolero version in your car?

No, I´m struggling with the Swing radio... :(

BTW, it´s very easy to code the car to Columbus. Just go to 17 Can Gateway, and tick of the box called "navigation".

Ahh thx for the tip. Hopefully everything will arrive next week so I can try it and make sure that everything will work.

Hi there! Is there a chance you could post a link where you've ordered these from?

Cheers!
