Immediate Help Needed - Sirius Wiring

I am in need of some help with connecting my Sirius Starbase tuner to my 04 F150 SC FX4 h.u.. I have three wires yellow (12v), red (ignition) and black (ground). Can anyone tell me what wires from my factory single CD head unit, to tap for these three wires?

What is the best way to tap these wires? How far from the connector should I cut to tap?

Thanks for you help!

I don't have that particular wiring diagram on hand...but here is a general wiring diagram that might work for your truck:

This is from a 04 F250 but should be the same wiring.

12v = lt. green/purple
Ground = black and black/lt. green
Ignition = pink/black or lt. green/yellow

Good luck and enjoy satellite radio.
