Gps/sirius antenna

OK guys,
This is a good question for all of you wire heads. The GPS/Sirius antenna harness number is 9L3T-19C181-BC. iT has one lead that divides into 2 leads with a Gold plug on one and a pink plug on the other. What plug goes to the GPS and what plug goes to the Sirius? Radio stolen from a two week old truck, going for a Pioneer replacement.

Pink is a FAKRA SMB for the XM... gold is probably an SMA or MCX for the GPS.

That's what I was looking for, an external gps antenna. Where do you hook up to it?

tvsjr, You are a god sent, I went to four Ford dealers and all they could do was look at me with there mouth open saying ahhhhhhhhh I will check into it. and of course nothing. A new radio from Ford is $1500.00, what a rip off. Again thank you.

Where is the antenna wire to hook up my gps to? Where does it come out? Is it easily accessible or hidden behind the radio someplace?

Behind the glove box I think. Dont know if you would have both if you do not have the Fatory Nav system and Sync

The only system that should have the GPS is the Nav head unit. I cant see that the basic system would need it?

But it wouldn't surprise me to see them using the same antenna on the non-nav model, and just not use that connector. I'd inquire of a knowledgeable dealer if there's a different part number for a replacement antenna for Sirius-only and Sirius/GPS for the nav.
