    Adding OEM Bluetooth to retrofitted RNS-E with Satellite

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I have a 2005.5 B7 A4 which was originally equipped with a Symphony II and no satellite (non-Bose). I have successfully upgraded to an RNS-E and a Sirius satellite module. Everything is working perfectly; I can communicate with the RNS-E with VCDS and I successfully recoded the cluster to show the NAV directions in the color display. I would like to add an OEM Bluetooth module but I want to make sure that I buy will preserve my Satellite radio. I cannot seem to find any information about this and I have searched high and low. I see that there are really only two sources for harnesses, Kufatec and a company in Poland and I know that the European cars do not have satellite radio. I also found a company on Ebay that sells complete kits with OEM modules but again I am not sure about the satellite because it is not a consideration in Europe. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    You can integrate the Bluetooth without issue. I did the same with my s4. I used all oem parts, it all works together. Enfig makes a bypass that allows satellite and a factory cd changer or iPod connection to be used. You can integrate the Bluetooth harness into the RNS-E harness easily.

    Thank you thank you that is what I thought. Had I really studied the RNS-E wiring layout I would have caught it. No CD changer or iPod connection so I am good to go.
