Hi all,

New Toledo 170 V5 owner here! I'm the 3rd owner having bought her from a previous owner of 16 years, which is very rare these days!

I'm investigating my options for stereo replacement and want to replace the factory double din sat nav unit and CD changer - I've pretty much worked out the bits I need for fitting an aftermarket unit, but ive searched high and low and cannot find any information on whether it's possible to buy an adapter to fit a mk2 OEM Leon stereo (like the RNS310/315) in my mk2 Toledo?

I'd like to keep it as standard Seat as possible, but haven't found anyone asking this question anywhere? I'm sure the answer will be no, you're an idiot - but I'd like it confirmed as it's possible to fit the same aftermarket head unit in both a mk1 and mk2 Leon with different adapters, so why not the OEM head unit?

I kept the stereo OEM in the end as I wanted to retain the factory Sat Nav unit as it looks cool and also the 6-cd changer in the glove box. I fitted a new DAB aerial to the roof, ran the aerial cables down the roof and passenger A-Pillar and behind the centre console and out to a neat little DAB adapter that plugs into the lighter socket. Then bought a special DIN cable off of ebay that allowed me to use the AUX input on the back of the Nav unit and connected that to the DAB unit.

So now I have retained the complete factory look, have fantastic DAB, FM signal, plus CD changer and AUX, with bluetooth on the DAB unit if I need it!
