Exactly like that. One wiring harness with a bunch of wires, a pink connector for the antenna. And a block of styrafoam holding the connectors.

The dealer installed the Sirius retrofit kit today. The invoice said 4 hours to install and update. Thank god the sales department got the bill. Other then that its worth the money the integration is perfect. I also got the one year free subscription!

This helps explain why Sirius has me down for 12 months. MY MA must have confused the factory unit with the retrofit. I've asked both Sirius and my MA to fix it.

Actually, I believe that there was a problem getting folks their lifetime subscriptions with the factory installed Sirius in the beginning. Apparently the problem has been resolved now. Thus, I'd definitely talk to your MA and/or directly to Sirius to make sure that you get what you paid for (it's something like $500 for a lifetime subscription via the Sirius web site!).
