Step 3:

Identify connections on theTV-in-Motion Unit:

This end connects to the back of the RNS 510

Align and slide the connector into the back of the RNS 510, andclose 90 Deg. Clip

(Skip this step if you do not have a TV-in-Motion Unit)

Cover kitchen knife with clothand gently pry the cardholder out:

Step 4:

The four (4) clips of the cardholder are pictured above.This should help you place your knife while prying.

Step 5:

Remove the exposed screwswith your torx head screwdriver:(Remember to always cover your knifewith the cloth when prying, I got overanxious and caused a little nick in the fascia,indicated by the smaller arrow) :o(- I fixed it later though.

Step 6:

Cover kitchen knife with clothand gently pry the air-bag light out:(do not pull out all the way, it is connectedwith wires in the back)

The four (4) clips of the air-bag light are pictured above.This should help you place your knife while prying.

Step 8:

Check to see if A/C vent arms wereaccidentally disconnected in step 8:

Step 9:

Cover kitchen knife with cloth andgently pry the hazzard light tab overthe radio clip:

This will release the fascia entirely. Just pull straight outand rest on top of dash, remember not to pull the air-baglight or the hazzard light out all the way.

This exposes four (4) screws that hold the radio in,remove them with your torx head screwdriver.

To remedy, just reconnect this ball-joint.Check both sides.

Step 10:

Release antenna connections andmain harness connection:(sorry for the blurry pic)

Step 11:

Gently and slowly pull the radio outto expose the antenna and mainharness connections:

To release antenna connections liftthese tabs and pull connectors straight out.

To release main harness just pull up on the90 Deg. Clip and pull straight out. (reverse of Step 3)

Gently and slowly pull the RCD 500 radio outall the way and set aside:

Sit back and admire the large open hole youhave just created in your Tig. :o)

Go and get the RNS 510!

Step 12:

Connect Tig’s Wire Harness to RNS 510: If you have the TV-in-Motion, connect the wire harnesspictured at left to this TV-in-Motion connector above.

If not, connect the wire harness pictured at left directlyto the back of the RNS 510.

The TV-in-Motion wires are pretty long so Iwrapped it around the Main Harness and used a black zip tie to secure.

Connect Radio Antenna adapter toantenna connectors (color-coded):

Find a good place for the GPS Puck Antenna, Tuck in All Wiresso they aren’t in the way, and gently slide the RNS 510 into the opening:

REVERSE THE REMOVAL STEPS AND FINISH THE INSTALLATION:

(Remember to do things gently and slowly, if you have to force somethingyou are probably doing it wrong)
