siruis radio hookup

hey all, got a question regarding my satillite radio i just installed. well your suppose to go through your FM channels and find a non static station and set it to that.....well i did and it sounds like garbage. i have to crank up my aftermarket cd player just to hear the damn thing. im always hearing static no matter what station i program it to go through! is there an adapter i can go through the rca jacks to the satillite radio so i dont have to hear more static than music? someone told me i can do that but i wanted to cheack with you guys..thanks ---ryan

sirius has an adapter that goes inline with the factory radio antenna. it plugs into the radio and the antenna into the adapter, then there is a wire that runs to the sirius unit.

I'm hoping to get Sirius in the new year and I plan on going this route from the getgo. Here is the adapter: http://shop.sirius.com/edealinv/servlet/ExecMacro?nurl=control/StoreItem.vm&ctl_nbr=2640&siId=1998401&catParentID =7872&scId=7872&oldParentID=7872

Unfortunately, it is currently out of stock.

Model#: FMDA25
Price: $19.99

as long as it has a antenna plug it will work all you do is plug the factory antenna in to the black box pictured above and plug the box into your radio and satillite radio
