Default A4 2007 - Sirius harness only has one antenna cable??

Hi Guys,
I've just opened my trunk and found the sat receiver harness. The problem is there is only one antenna cable! I have looked and there are no other antenna cables around! Any ideas. I want to buy a sirius receiver but will wait untill I know where the other cable is or if it is not needed.
Thanks for the repleis.
Sean

Hi, I just posed similar question on the Audi Electronics forum for my daughter's 07 A3. Maybe I should have posted it in this telematics forum. Anyway, mine is installed and working, but have an Antenna warning message on in the middle of the dash. If you hear anything please let me know, I'll do the same for you. Doug

The 2007 sat radio rcvr only uses a single antenna connector instead of the dual diversity antenna which req the brown and green connections.There are new part #'s available thru dealers

I bought the Terk antenna splitter for the Sirius receiver off e-may and plugger it into the receiver and the other end into my car antenna cable. This got everything working. The unit cost me $20 with shipping. I had to move the can connector plug also.

Default fyi - the diversity antenna system has nothing to do with the SAT antenna..(single or dual).

...in some 2007 cars, audi is shifting to a single lead SAT antenna. Also, XM tuners will not be offered from Audi anymore.....only Sirius. With the XM/Sirius merger...this is kinda a moot point.
