Cruise Control / Sat Nav S3 retrofit

[omegadirective]

Hi Guys,

I was just wanting to know if you lot know any good places in Scotland or Cumbria (Aberdeen or Inverness preferably) where I could get an OEM cruise control and/or a SAT NAV OEM both for the 2002 S3 fitted and programmed?

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Odie

you can retro fit sat nav your self, do you have double din or single din

No idea. Not really savvy with the systems and I don't have my handbooks to hand for another couple of weeks so I can't check! Is there anyway I can tell just by looking at the unit thats inplace just now?

If I remember correctly it's a Symphony V2 in it with the in-dash 6 CD-Changer.

you have double din then

so its a case of putting a sat nav system in, coding and connecting up a speed signal wire, i would like to help but i havent finished mine yet as my vagcom broke

Thanks mate! I have no experience with VAG-COM although in the next few months was thinking of getting it! The price tag puts me off! I've seen some Sat Nav units on E-Bay but not sure whether it's a good idea to buy them off there?

Most people buy theres from ebay, i got mine from the bay and it was shipped from another country,

you need to decide what unit you want - RNS-E but a4, or a6 unit, you will need to modyfy the unit to make it fit, and you need to know what version you want, version Q is the latest i think, i have a older unit and it works ok but havent tested the sat nav stuff out properly yet as i cant sort it out
