Default XM Radio interface

Anyone know if the Blitsafe XM interface from a 2002 A4 Bose premium radio will work on the new Nav plus system? XM not available in Canada through Audi, but we still get the signal here. I just picked up my new A4 3.2 with nav plus, but want to hook up my existing interface. Should I just order the OEM XM from somewhere in the U.S. to work with the nav plus? I assume the nav system is the same here.

Default The RNS-E should support sat radio

Do you have a VAG-COM or can you pull it out to see the part number? The 8E0 035 192E and 8E0 035 192F support sat radio. Did you get the glovebox CD changer with your Navi+? The CD changer is using the same pins as the Blitzsafe or IceLink, you can only have one of both. The OEM sat receiver would be the cleanest solution and works with the CD changer but the wiring might be an issue. The OEM sat receiver would sit in your trunk, on the left side.

You may want to check this posting to see if you have the wires/prep for sat radio.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/475083.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/475083.phtml</a</li></ul>

I figured as much, but didn't want to make a blanket statement just in case ;-)
