Yes it will be compatible & of course you need a double din setup before doing anything else.

hi nhn

i have a symphone 11 in at the minute but the cd is playing up so i was going to get a rns-e and there is some on ebay saying 2010 model but my friend said i would have to change a can bus or it would drain the battery

so is that just rubbish?

 

[raz83]

sorry for the grammer im tired....

Rubbish, only faulty units cause this & that's few & far between.

I supply/fit these systems.

Hey Ryan,

You'd be better off with RNSE mk1 for least hassle and cost and I assume you already have a double din unit in your A3?

Nigel (Username NHN) can provide you with one I'm sure and if you fancied the newer unit, yes that's quite possible but would need to update a few parts and aerial module for FM reception. Again Nigel can advise on this if your interested (he fitted mine). Top bloke. Just drop him a PM.

Lol and he's replied before I could get my reply done on the train.
