I have a 2007 A4 Quattro w/just the regular symphony audio system and am trying to add the dvd navigation & the sirius receiver, but want to make sure I purchase all of the correct parts.

I won't be doing the install (best buy will), but they said I will need to make sure I give them all the proper parts so I give them everything. From my understanding I need this...

RNS-E Unit
Some type of wiring harness
GPS Antenna
Custom Unit Coding??
Sirius Receiver (8E0 035 593 F/8E0 057 593 - F, H, or L?)

The last thing is making me think that I should just buy a kit from somewhere (since I also say various adapters that people mention that you may or may not need and some other antennas too), I saw some things on eBay, but nothing that was really an all in one solution.

I searched this site for about an hour, but wasn't able to find enough info to be really confident in making the purchase w/o asking this specific question.

I'm also in Chicago so if someone just knows an a store or someone that would do all of this that'd be fine too.

Can't help you as I've not looked into doing anything like this, but the guy on this forum might have a better alternative to RNS-E...

Worth a look.

 

Own an 07 Audi A4 with factory Symphony stereo and no bluetooth. Was considering replacing head unit with Kenwood DNX6140 which has GPS and bluetooth. Received an outstanding price from 6th Ave Electronics who are authorized Kenwood dealers. Also, Kenwood giving $100 rebate up to 9/30/09.

Have read on some message boards that some have encountered problems with OBD and reception after installing aftermarket radios. Does anyone have experience or knowledge about this issue? Thank you.
