Are these SIRIUS connectors underneath my seat? -photos-

I'm borrowing my friend's 2005 MCS for a few months and would like to know a few things.

Does this have a Sirius antenna connector under the front passenger seat? I can't seem to locate it, I've heard it's a yellow wire?

Sirius uses the same connectors as the CD Changer.

Yup, the Sirius hookup is in the right drop-down panel in the boot (if you don't have a CD changer...if you do, you have to use the pass-through on the changer to hook it up).

Sorry, yeah I do realize that's there. I was under the impression the antenna connector was located underneath the seat according to some prior posts.

That is for the new 2nd Gen Mini... There is no antenna on the 1st Gen. Very easy to run wire and use magnet on roof, or you can mount it inside the factory antenna (what I did).

Here is the link with pics and directions:https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ghlight=direct
