Another SIRIUS question

First of all, I just took delivery on a 2008 Clubman. I did not opt for the factory installed Sirius. We have a Sirius Starmate radio that we are going to mount somewhere in the vehicle.

My question is this. I want to connect power and antenna to the factory pre-wired Sirius connections. What do I need? Does anyone know the specific adapters needed to make the install?

I know this info is probably scattered throughout this forum, but cannot put my finger on it.

Thanks

To wire direct into the antenna you need a satellite cable pig tale, plugs right into your starmate. Then to do the power use the add a fuse from parts direct. I will see if i can find the thread about the install.

If you have a car audio guy do it, they will have everything on hand.

here is the fuse install

I can not fine the sat cable thread but you have to unbolt the passenger seat to get to the cable, its under the carpet under the seat. I tried my best to get to it without unbolting the seat but no go.
