yes. see my sig for Lee's XM install for some details....
and my pbox install (some links inclosed).
You will have to purchase a wiring harness and do some minor wiring work....but can be done. I wouldn't bother with the dealer, as they are unaware of this option/capability.
This question comes up a lot...so search this forum for more details.
Good luck!

And if you don't care about or use SAT radio then you can just plug and play...
once you buy the long Audi Phatbox cable, you'll unplug a connector on your radio with 3 wires in it to plug your new cable in. These 3 wires are your SAT radio audio signals.
you can also wire it all up to work together, but it will be a little more work and research on your part. That's why I say if you don't care about SAT radio, then you can plug and play.
