thanks Marques, I hijacked the NAV DVD fibre link lead to feed the newly installed device from Venelin ( unit # 20 v2 installed ). It works perfectly by selecting CDC from the entertainment cluster on the dash. I also received confirmation from Venelin that until I splice into the D2B loop between the bluetooth phone module and NAV DVD unit, he NAV will not be capable of turn by turn voice prompts until I plug the NAV DVD back into fibre loop. Also, I have a yellow/orange caution light illuminated under the speedo. Interestingly there are no DTC's logged even using AE with Jag module in spite of the caution light on the dash.

just an update post install, the caution light had nothing to do with the NAV DVD missing from the optic loop. It was the parking brake warning after having disconnected the battery. I'm on the hunt for an optic cable and pinged H20boy for an inquiry, Speaking of a ping, I had the volume up to 24 in the Jag and iphone volume turned way down and then nuked the pandora app when I parked. Then 15 seconds after a restart, the BT device delivers a ping and at 24 it was so loud it freaked me out. I checked with Venelin asking for an attenuated ping firmware update and he confirmed the ping is already attenuated 30%. After adjusting iPhone volume to max I found 16-18 on the Jag audio setting is loud enough and the ping is tolerable...although not sure how necessary the ping is other than to confirm initial connectivity.
Here is a optic cable assemble that should render 4 or 5 single cables...

@trosty the kit should have 2 USB cables one long (6ft) and one short(1ft), connect the short cable to the device then the long cable to the short one, finally the end of the long cable is connected to the USB dongle and that is mounted on the rear shelf close to the speakers.
Route the USB cables so you will have easy access where the short cable connects with the long cable. To perform SW update disconnect the long cable from the short cable and plug a USB stick.
I personally let the two USB cable junction hang from the stack and behind the door for easy access. See pic.

How do I get one of these? Thank you.

You're basically/technically listening to MP3 CD's. That's the ONLY difference when it comes to quality, is the fact you're listening to MP3/MP4 files versus CDA files...

Hello,
I installed mine just hours after getting to the post office to pick it up. I am blown away. The sound is great, the usage is smooth with play, pause, and skip buttons, and I dig the girls voice telling me when it is ready. The installation was simple as can be. Thank you Venelin! Very, very impressed!

I had the same scenario in my 04 S Type. I used the fiber lead from the SatNav to hook up the Bluetooth device. My Nav disc is an 08 to 09 and is second rate to my phone. Your system will still place you on the map and calculate a route for whatever it is worth, but you will no longer have turn by turn through the audio system. You will need to search for the 12VDC plug, but it was there all bundled up.

It is unlikely that you would have a spare optical plug. You can take Steve's suggestion, but I would recommend adding an optical plug instead - it is not too hard. You would need a random optical link cable from eBay, dismantle it and plug one plug and one lead in the existing harness.
