Default Sirius Module

Need some help on this. I have a 2007 A4 that came with a Symphony II. I also had the iPod Interface installed before I picked the car up. Car is pre-wired for Sat, just no module.

I just upgraded to the RNS-E a few weeks back. Everything works fine.

I just bought a Sirius module off of ebay - part number 8E0-035-593D, which is what I was told would work with either Symphony II or RNS-E.

I know how to install the module in the trunk, shouldn't have any issues there. My question is, how do I get the car to recognize it? I know I will lose my iPod adapter, which is fine. I've also seen posts where I need to pull the kick panel near my pass side kick panel and switch a plug around. This seemed to be done by people who all had the Symphony II and not the RNS-E.

Do I still need to switch this plug around, move any pins behind the RNS-E, remove the iPod interface, or have my RNS-E recoded?

When I was installing the nav, I did have an extra plug behind the unit - could this be the plug for Sat Radio?

Thanks in advance.

I would check out some of the information on nsxjr.com (instructions and how to's) and/or the good folks at www.kufatec.com, who make the adapter cables (easier to modify by just changing cables).

Yeah, moving the CAN buss connector under the kick panel, connects the sat tuner to the Infotainment CAN buss, that is how the presence of the sat tuner is recognized by the Sym II HU.
