Location of Audio Gateway E320 Wagon
Hello
I have a 2005 E320 wagon and am installing the factory satellite radio (parts are on the way.) I found the pre-wiring behind the passenger side rear panel of the wagon for the SDAR.
I am not able to locate the AGW (audio gateway) and the fiber optic cables which must be disconnected in order to connect the fiber cables from the pre-wired fiber optic plug in the car. I found pictures of the AGW and fiber optic cable location in a sedan, in the trunk just behind the rear seat under the floor carpet, but I am not sure where the AGW and fiber cables are located in the wagon.
If they are in the same place as the sedan, under the floor carpet/panel in the back of the wagon, how do those panels come out of the car? The side panels are a snap to remove, but the floor panel isn't that obvious, if the AGW and fiber cables are even located there. I assume the main battery is under the floor panel somewhere so it has to come out!
Any assistance would be appreciated, thanks!

Thanks to a couple of messages from members, I found that the AGW in my 2005 E320 wagon is located under the rear cargo floor, the front most panel pulls up once the cargo tie-down is un-bolted and removed which lets the panel come off. AGW and fiber cables are under that panel. Thanks!
