RNS315 reversing camera options

Post by mostlysimon »

I have been trying to find out the options I have for adding a reversing camera to my RNS315. After doing a bit of research on here and google, it looks like there are three options:

1. A Chinese eBay job, which includes a camera for £93. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171201799410" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

2. Kufatec interface for £129, then buy a camera. https://www.kufatec.co.uk/shop/en/volks ... ns-510-315" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

3. Genuine VW loom for £80 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272437934313" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and a genuine camera for £106 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Reversing-Volk ... B00U2IQR5C" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Grand total of £186.

Does anyone have any experience with any of these combinations or could comment on why the cheapest option wouldn't be as good as the other two? Or, if the Kufatec is the best option, which NTSC cameras can people recommend?

Cheers.

Anyone any further news on this subject. I'm tempted by the Chinese one but would like to hear if it's any good? :D

I just bought a cheap Chinese double din radio/gps/dvd all bells and whistles type headset and two connectable cameras. One front and one rear which all were reasonably cheap. €260 for the lot. Have not fitted them yet. Did you have any issues fitting yours or which system did you go for in the end
