Is there an ISO plug that connects to give such functionality please? (Got about 2000 tunes on a stick for the long journeys to Spain each winter!)

I've not heard back from you so assume you have it sorted - there is no native bluetooth supported system on the MK II, without a third party unit like a Yatour or similar - but this has basic functionality, track info, titles or anything - just track numbers listed like a CD changer would.

Great, thanks... it would be nice to keep the steering wheel controls but not vital. I was wondering about the physical fitting of the radio into the dashboard, though. Is the shape of the dashboard around the radio exactly the same between S1 and S2, so a fitting kit intended for an S2 will work with my S1?

Radio on my C5 has never worked since I bought the car in June, the display shows it hunting for stations but it's completely silent, no hiss. CD player works, albeit a bit temperamentally. Is the problem likely to be in the aerial amplifier, or would it be hissing if that were the case?

Does anyone have one of these fitted ? I installed a cheapo ebay one, the type that emulate the CD changer which I installed today with USB & SD card input. This is on an RNEG unit.

No because the RNEG system is only designed to see that connection as a CD Changer - hence the 6 Disc / Albums / Folders allowed as you've stated. The RT6 and NG4 have Hard Discs so have the jukebox facility, with the NG4 also having USB and SD Card for media too. RNEG uses different protocols and hence why a lot of people have upgraded it to the...

Hello,
I'm installing an amplifier (Audison Prima 8.9) in my C5 X7.
I'm trying to get a live feed from the battery to the amp, but I can't find any available spot (grummet) where to run the cable.
Is there a already available place where to run the cable, or do I need open a new one on the firewall?
Best regards,
AJ

Good luck with getting the amp sorted and enjoy the holidays.

You need to be aware that there are various revisions of the same audio systems RD4 for example that support different functions.

Unless you are getting a Tourer with the camera fitted, you might want to consider something like this that Ace did on his:
