No, Sorry, No idea.

Not sure about that part number of the top of my head, but a voice module is basically plug & play, if you have the right one, and you extend the fiber optic network to accommodate the extra module. Lots of threads here on the forum about the network.

I fixed the thread title for you, welcome to the forum.

 

The module you mentioned looks like a phone module (aka PSE). I'm not 100% sure, maybe they decided to combine the voice and PSE in one unit.

Depends on your definition of Plug and Play - there is a plug for it in the trunk. As cambo mentioned you will need to extend the D2B optical network with one mode node (plug), which is not hard, but you'll need the cable parts for it. The D2B network is a ring of optical cables that go from one device to another. It is important that the ring is complete.

You may be lucky and there may be an unused D2B port in the trunk - it has a mini loop plug that passes the signal.

So it's not a 2 day job, but not 10 minute either. Other than that the car would recognize the unit automatically if you have navigation unit. If you have normal radio, it may require some reconfiguration from the dealer.

 

Worth putting it into google. Even better if you know to drop the AB when looking out of curiosity.
