Also just retrofitted mmi 3g+ and homelink FWIW. May post some write-ups / pictures eventually.
EDIT UPDATE. - Fist of all should have mentioned B8 S4
Second of all:
According to FSM left Access / Start Authorization Antenna is located in the
left rear door.
No mention of anything in the right door. Just trunk and center console
Perhaps the Ali harness has both depending on LHD RHD? Or maybe I need 4.
The Ali harness uses 4, but not being a oem harness not sure why it's different but the car only needs 3 according to ELSA, I plan to connect all 4 using the harness. I'm sure more antennas are better.
Yes the oem.placement is in the rear door but you can mount it in the front door if you want assuming the harness reaches prettt sure it does. Proper placement would be trunk, both front doors and center console.
