I just bought this version of the RNS 510 after doing alot of research on here about upgrading. I saw this on ebay and jumped on it.

I currently have a 2011 gti with AN OEM RCD 510. I do have a few unanswered questions though:
-i have not physically checked but do i have the external bluetooth under the pass. seat for my model year gti? do i have to do anything else to enable bluetooth capabilities for my phone after install the RNS 510?
-i know i have to disable the compass when i install and install a gps antenna for the new unit. do i need any other wires or harnesses to hook this up to my car?
-i currently have sirius xm radio with the RCD unit, will i have a prob with getting satellite radio working when i install the RNS?
-will my mdi, steering wheel controls and all voice commands work after i VAGCOM? DO I HAVE TO VAGCOM FOR IT TO WORK?
-what is different about this "E" version of the RNS 510 from the latest versions?
-does anyone know who specializes in VAGCOM work and radio installation in NYC / NJ AREA??
I have seen the installation videos and it looks fairly straightforward but i rather have a professional install and VAGCOM at the same time.
-AM I MISSING ANYTHING WITH REGARDS TO THE INSTALL?
GUYS I AM BRAND NEW TO VW AND THE GTI AND TRYING TO LEARN AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. PLEASE HELP A NOOB OUT.
