Anyone know how hard it is to get to the back of the emblem? Does it just plug into the CMS?

PD: The bracket-adapter for RVC emblem goes with my signature every time it is copied ...

Is that a pre-existing hole?

I'm not so knowledgeable in this department but isn't €399 (£309) quite expensive for this, considering the factory option is around €310 (£240). Would sourcing the parts direct (if possible) from VW be cheaper?
I only ask as I was considering this option but didn't add it to my order in the end, but still would like to have it.

As I understand it. The rear view camera on a 6C is down by the licenseplate. Not in the rear emblem.
Then CarSystems could just have sold you the camera/VW handle for a 6C if that was available instead of the Mk 6 Golf badge and adapter ring.

Yeah, that would explain the price difference. I thought the badge/handle version was the normal one as I hadn't seen any others.
For those wondering, this video shows the factory installed camera is under the edge of the license plate area on a 6C, as mentioned Mart!n-GTI-DK.

Expensive or cheap
The only car that I like is the Bugatti Veyron, is it expensive or cheap? Possible or not possible.
I suppose a glass of water on the moon has to be quite expensive ... It would have to pay to all who made possible carry this glass of water to the moon.
Sometimes, money is not important... the fewer times .
Solution; No thirst on the moon.
Thousands of POLO 6R have RVC in the emblem.
The price of RVC emblem POLO 6C of CARSYSTEM is very competitive and they give excellent service. 1000% recommended.

So would the bending lines work with a 6C? Or does the CMS only support the licence plate camera?
