the RNS-D wiring into the type 2 TV module consists of a 32 pin and a blank 11 pin connector. Where is the 11 pin connector referred to above and why is a new 32 pin connector required?

Also, can anyone suggest the best place to buy the RCA accessory cable for my camera like the one shown on that post (the link on that page is out of date now)? The similar leads I see on ebay look the same but do not specifically say they support the 8J0919148B TV unit. They maybe OK though!
32 pin connector will be needed on RNS-E side of the cable that connects TV tuner and RNS-E. It will be needed because your existing RNS-D has got 11-pin connector and RNS-E is different. Audi made the 11-pin connector obsolete and created new 32 pin connector on RNS-E. Because there is no commercially available adaptor from 11-pin connector to 32-pin connector (at least I haven't found one) you will have to remove 11 pin connector and solder the new 32 pin connector according to pinout I provided. But because your car can be different always check ELSA wiring diagrams before doing anything. You may find an adaptor to avoid soldering -- perhaps someone else can suggest.

On another side of of the TV tuner cable we have connector that will fit the new TV tuner. You only need to add a third row or pins with RCA connectors like this (I haven't found UK supplier, but I'm sure they exist):

You will need to change two fakra antenna connector housings when you install RNS-E hybrid tuner, part number 4E0 035 672 K.
