    Jon, that's awesome. Thanks!!!

    Now the only thing to clear up, and this one isn't as big of a deal. How to get my current 2012 model non-touchscreen XM to work with a 2014 Entune plus radio.

    The interface cable looks like the existing blue cable that won't fit in the 2014 HU?

    I will let you know in a few days when I get the parts. I am confident this will work. I also found a 2014 xm unit to put with my nAv.

    On the 2012 where is the module? I know on the 2014 it is mounted below the radio. For the 2012 is it integrated into the radio???

    On my non-entune/non-touchscreen, it is integrated into the radio.

    I am trying to understand why they even have the Multimedia ECU. Does anyone have an Audio Wiring Diagram for the 2012?

    Yes it is. I am expecting the parts this week. I am looking forward to getting everything working better than ever. I think I just over analyzed the whole swap. I believe it really is "that easy".

    Well, the problem now is that the antenna cable on our 2012 radios with integrated XM antenna has a different connector than the separate xm antenna box.

    Aux works perfect. Usb now working with adapter cables. Xm cable came in last night, so I will try that next.

    Does the AUX get fixed with the USB solution? Or are they unrelated issues?
