XM Direct quick install question
I need a quick answer to what I thought would be something so simple.

I have 2006 mcs with h/k.
Pull out the panel, find the wires looks to be female... the blitzsave looks to be female.. or whatever both ends look identical. How are they supposed to connect?

Nevermind.. moving too fast to pay attention. The pieces I was looking at were the passthrough points. I'm good to go now... install was simple.. Posted first 4:21 with nothing but the parts in view.. finsihed and closed up ready to activate at 4:45.

XM/blitzsafe was the best media mod I made! Haven't listened to my ipod/icelink in 5 months.

I had used a similar solution in my Z3 so I knew this would be the way to go!
