RS Monitor on 250 ph1, the secret third part number

Discussion in 'Electrical & Interior - Security, ICE, Wiring Loom' started by DJBusaNL, Feb 10, 2021.

  1. Since a week i'm the proud owner of a 250 ph1. Unfortunately equipped with the IMO useless TomTom Carminat NAV. I've been binge watching this forum to find out how to install an RS Monitor. Unfortunately I can't find the so called Plug 'n play monitor with SN 280340023R. But to my surprise I found a salvaged RS Monitor from a 2010 ph1 (sold in the Netherlands), but with another part number: 280348042R. My treasure hunt for the truth about the serialnumbers lead me to carcat dot info where I found the replacement partnumbers for the 0023R here.
    I checked to confirm the partnumber is a match and the salvage company told me that there are 3 versions of that particular RS Monitor in order of date manufactured:

    280340023R
    280348042R
    280345867R

    I keep my fingers crossed but for €125 I will take the gamble. I read here that it is possible to have both the RS monitor and the SatNav, but I can't find instructions about how to do that. Can anybody help me with that issue?

    Regards, DJ

  2. Welkom, mooi ding!
    Why not upgrade to the navigation unit of the 275, loads of people do so?
     
  3. Hey Arno,

    Thanks! So let me get this straight... you can upgrade/replace the 250 ph1 Carminat to an Rlink Nav? If so i missed that completely. Can you pm or reply a link to the thread where that is explained? Will it even fit without completely tearing and cutting the panels?
     
  4. Can be done, dont think its a matter of cutting stuff, more to do with alot of hardware, looms and coding to get it working. StageX motorsport are the guys you need to speak to, i beleive theyve done it.
     
  5. Thanks, I contacted them and they indeed can do it and got a quote. It was a bit steep for my budget tho, and I'm not sure I can do the installation myself, so I'm gonna see if the monitor I got is indeed a v1. Fingers crossed! Also looking at the Android auto satnav/radio's on Aliexpress. They all have the discription that they are suited for a Megane III Fluence 2009 - 2016. I sent the seller a photo of my interiour, so they can determine if it fits.
     
  6. Keep us posted!
