I believe you can actually install the tray and have it work with your existing unit.... but I think you have to have to OEM satellite radio kit installed as well... and you may need a custom reprogram of your unit....

if you have it, you can wire in the 4-pin AUX connector to the factory 16-pin harness.... (i believe)

I've did it on mine but I did it with the OEM Navi unit...
Cost me $20 on ebay for the tray and $99 for the radio reprogram...
Double what an inexpensive PIE adapter costs... but its got that priceless "Stock" look to it... Can't post pics at the moment or I would have included the pinouts of the 2 harnesses that need to be wired together...
