Default XM install done last week (more)...

They didnt do a bad job. I was impressed. On my B5, the fvcker drilled holes in the center console and mounted it where the passengers leg would rub it. This guy fabricated a nicle little arm that slides between the side of the radio and the console. It is mounted to the inside seam of the console back behind the radio. Not a bad install. Cheers! Mike

Default You can get a Delphi adaptor from Blitzsafe that will plug into..

the CD changer input on the back of the radio. Much cleaner than the RF route. Here's a link to the adaptor.<ul><li><a href="http://www.blitzsafe.com/blitz_catalog/blitz_xm/blitz_xm_list/blitz_audi/blitz_audi.html">Blitzsafe Delphi/ XM Interface for Audi</a></li></ul>

Default not aware but if the Delphi has a line out jack, you should get a Blitzsafe AUX V.1B adaptor

so you can run a mini-stereo to RCA connection through the ext. CD changer port. I assume you have the '03 Symphony II? You could get the Delphi spec Blitzsafe but it may not be compatible with other Audio sources that you may wish to upgrade to later on.
