A4/Rs4 Faceplate for Rns-E

Post by pule333 » Thu May 25, 2017 10:44 am

Anyone know where I can get one? Ebay is empty. Seems like they are like gold dust :(
Purchased a 2012 RNS-E of eBay but it got badly damaged by parcel force :( mofo's
Trying to claim compensation but incase they refuse I would need to change the faceplate. Any help would be appreciated.

Can't you just swap it over with your existing faceplate?

All the buttons/knobs can be removed from the faceplate, once it has been disassembled and then swapped over into your old faceplate.

Ah ok, might be able to use this and turn it into an A3 one? Only seen one of what you need a few months ago, as they rarely come up on eBay in a search I have going.

Yeah I have seen that. Thanks Sam. Might be a way forward. Would be easier to just disassemble one rather than both and rebuild both. Need to hear from DamageForce first.

Yes, those little screws are fiddly and if never been apart, quite tight.

If I see something, I give you a shout.

Thanks mate! I used them before to fit Bluetooth module.. might give them a ring see if they can supply the faceplate. Would rather do it myself.
I am still hopeful I get full refund from Parcelforce
