Need help re handsfree adaptor harness...

I posted this question a few days ago... but the thread got off track and I've done more work on the problem since then.
I am installing a handsfree kit in my '04 9-5 Arc sedan. I do not have OnStar. I have the HK radio. I removed the SID panel, ACC panel, and radio. I found an 18-pin plug wrapped around a wire bundle coming from the left directly behind the ACC and covered with friction tape -- the same wire bundle as the three plugs that plug into the back of the radio. I unwrapped the plug, and the adapter harness I bought from genuinesaab.com(12 801 584) plugs right into it.
My problem is this: The plug I found only has one 6" red wire connecting to it. While it may be a power lead, it obviously isn't what is needed for the usual Saab handsfree features (i.e. radio muting, using the stereo speakers, using a microphone etc.) I've looked and felt around the inside of the dash and I can't find any other open plugs... and none of them are the same size anyway.
Questions:
Did Saab drop the handsfree phone option on some '04 9-5 Arcs?
Is it possible that the plug I found is the correct one... and that the other necessary wires are inside the the wrapped wire bundle but never connected to the plug?
Does this "mystery plug" supposed to be used for another purpose?
Thanks in advance for any feedback!
