Ive got the "swing" single cd (mp3) player and want either a Bolero or Columbus but there is much confusion over what will/wont fit and what will/wont work

any ideas?

Both will fit, just need the correct facia surround, the Columbus is the best, on removing your unit, look to the back of the opening and you will see a metal bar right at the back at the top, this is where the satnav Ariel sits held on with double sided tape, just reconnect everything, the only thing you have to do is gently unclip the airbag warning button from the old facia and fit it to the new.
see utube for a vid on fitting but you don't need to feed the sat Ariel cable like they have, the correct facia can be bought for about 20from the dealers, then get in touch with Mike Holl on briskoda as a pm and he will send you the most up to date maps , if the unit hast them already, the whole job will take around 10 mins to do, you will need a tork screwdriver

with the colombus there are many variants (suffixed after part number, plus 30gb and 40gb hdd options and even later screen improvements, most sellers havent a clue what they have

Get the Lithuanian versions he always sends the most up to date ones, the RNS 510 can easily be updated with soft wear and maps, even the original A ones, but for £560 all in, you can go to the dealers and get a pioneer unit fitted, satnav BT DAB
