VW Golf Updates: New map software to RNS510C and activation of rear footwell lights



Over the weekend, met up with Jimmy - the one man VW accessories centre and he helped me to install map updates to our Golf Sports RNS510C Media and Navigation system. The new map updates covers additional roads such as the new expressways added in the past few years and locally updated Points of Interest(POIs) such as traffic light cameras, makan spots, petrol stations, ATMs etc.

The updated software allows you to select which additional POI you want displayed on your map. It covers both maps of Singapore and Malaysia including known speed trap location and petrol station POIs for Malaysia.For those keen, you can contact Jimmy
at 91777305 or go to his blog - http://jimmy-cbx.blogspot.com/

We also asked Jimmy to install two bulbs at the rear and use his VAGCOM to activate rear footwell lights which activate during night and when the door is unlocked or opened which is conveneient especially when you are putting stuff on the floor in the rear in a dark carpark.
