Rneg myway microphone problem

Post by Frankmichelle »

Hello I have retrofitted the rneg myway to my C4 2005. That had the rd4..

But I can't get the microphone to work probably.. I used a mic from a dension gateway. But people can't hear me. It's to low. What kind of mic should I use. The original is expensive. Is there some alternatives

How expensive, the genuine microphone is roughly 20 GBP new at the dealer ...

Are you sure you checked the right part price? I've used microphone part.no. 6593 65, the rough price (just checked), should be approx. 23 €

Daylight robbery (without the sunglasses) ... I'm not sure if there are exact alternatives, but in theory, any "standard" microphone should do the trick (nothing extra in the wiring)

i have now ordered this from ebay.

i hope this one works better than the one i have.
i have an idea that the microphones that are designed to be in the sealing have at higher mic level gain than the regular ones.
