I didn't realize there were 10 pages of history. Just went through it all. I see that the antenna only supports analog phones, and that there is an RJ45 connector by the cup holder.
Anyone have access to the pin-outs of the RJ-45 connector? I might be able to build a StarTac cable (maybe several).

I am interested in pin-outs or a custom made cable too. Looking at the service bulletin for the Audi phone installation, it looks like there is also a transceiver that connects inside the driver-side rear tailight access panel for the antenna. I looked at mine and it appears to be a RS-232 type connector but not sure if it's DB-25 or other.

I would love to see you make this work for a digistal Startac. I ended up buying the Zero Install Hands-Free Kit from Motorola, which works well, but I have wires all over my car!
SOmeone earlier stated that the antenna in the TT cannot pick up and give signal to a digital phone. Did you happen to run across this post?
Please feel free to keep my e-mail address as I'd like to know your progress.
Thank you and good luck.

At http://www.a4.org/faq/electronics.html there are several documents on the cell phone system and pin outs. The pinouts are the same for the TT and I was able to get my Nokia phone working with the pre-installed wiring and the Nokia hands free kit.
You are correct about the antenna not being the correct type/length for a digital/PCS phone. You will need to purchase the correct Antenna and install it in place of the stock unit (twists on and off).
