    Up for sale is a complete RNS-E kit for the C5 A6 or allroad. I removed this from my allroad tonight since I just upgraded. This unit had the DVD-ROM replaced with a brand new one 6 months ago under warranty since the one that it had began clicking when discs were ejected, so instead of waiting for it to fail I had it replaced. It is in PERFECT shape and will be a great upgrade for someone as these units fully integrate with your steering wheel buttons and also your display between your speedometer and tach. If you have a bluetooth kit, it also fully integrates with the steering wheel and DIS also. I can also include a used XM or Sirius module for $150.

    Here is what is included with the sale

    RNS-E Nav Plus unit (4B0 035 192 P)
    New Plug and Play harness (Bose or Non-Bose option)
    New Diversity Antenna Adapter
    New set of radio removal tools
    New Magnetic GPS Puck
    Original Printed Instruction Manual
    Original Security PIN card
    Working 2011 DVD copy

    Price is $900 + shipping

    Optional items:

    Used RNS-E compatible Sirius OR XM Module - $150

    Here are some pics:


















    Here is a quick video of the unit in action prior to me pulling it out:

    Since I keep getting emails on whether I still have this, I figure I would post this here

    I replaced it with a new 2012 RNS-E unit and I also the OEM bluetooth setup. I got it all from zawa (Adam) here:

    It was a basic plug and play install as the kit he sent had everything I needed.

    I did a review also which I posted here along with some pics. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions about the new setup.

    Nice. I didn't know that the RNS-E had been upgraded.

    I also thought that the old SD card reader was limited to 2 gb, not 4.

    I've got one in my '01 A4, another in my '99 A6 (yes, single DIN, pre-CANBUS car. Don't ask!)

    Finding non HC cards is a PITA.

    I'll take a couple of pics and post them over the weekend. Not much to see...I had to replace the center console all the way to the parking brake, along with a later climate control head. I started with just a double DIN cage, but the older console was too narrow.

    It looks completely stock...aside from the fact that nobody expects a double DIN indash NAV system in the car.

    I have a similar setup in my '01 A4. That one was a lot easier!
