As far as im aware all the RNS-E units only have partial post code, people have aparently managed to hack the unit to make it work but nobody has proved it! i think there were only two types of RNS-E the mk1 and the mk2, Mk1 is what i have which supports duel 4GB SD cards (aparently it can take 8gb cards unoffically) has a standerd LCD screen and black turn wheel buttons. Mk2 supports duel 32gb SDHC cards, LED screen and silver turn wheel button things only other visial difference is the mk2 has a media button and the mk1 has a CD/TV button. if your mates one does have full postcode can you find out what softwere its running please

Hello just a bit of an update. I was bored and couldn't sleep so I got my carbon vinyl out and pulled the dash and door trims out of the car and wrapped them in carbon vinyl to match my gearstick surround, I liked the glossy trims but due to being nearly 9 years old they all had marks on them and most people know how OCD I am with having my cars looking there best so thought the vinyl would work well. Here's some photos! Results speak for themselfs. I will get some photos of them fitted in the morning.

Before and after

Looks ace mate!!
I always pondered doing that to mines, but as I've got the aluminium ones that aren't smooth I never bothered, yours look the perfect base for wrapping and as always a top notch job done

Paul

Looking good, carbon bits look standard.

Cheers fella, carbon vinyl is awesome if your able to get to grips with applying vinyl, I managed to get this stuff cheap 2mx600mm for £9 on eBay, I've done my trims and my partners a3 trims and I still have plenty left.

Id like to do some bits in the focus but never dine it before, have you git the ebay link to the stuff you used?

Its cheaper than i thought, just under £7 for 1520mm by 600mm with free delivery



Just have a go with it on various things, using a hairdryer to heat it if your needing to shape it around curves. when its warm its like bubble gum, you can stretch it around most things. if you need any help ask me and ill try my best to explain!

Looks very nice mate

Just a little update, been wanting to do this since i got the car, bought myself some exhaust tips cheap. Cut my pipes and cut the valance and the badly welded the tips on my welder is very old and doesnt give a good constant feed so its bloody hard to use! But there on there and there not going to fall off any time soon Im happy with the result, look very OEM and give the rear end abit of a boost in looks. Valance is going to be pained gloss grey tonight
