Then for me it would be the best of both worlds.

PnP units can be hardwired for power.
Does anyone know if the MINI antenna can be wired in also? Or what kind of connection is on the end of the antenna pigtail?

Anyone have a photo of the OEM Sirius/FM antenna base that comes with the aforementioned "kit"?

thread back...all previous owners likely gone...
the oem sirrirus kit was pretty rare...
Due to $$$, and the difficulity in getting parts...
Real-oem might show the schematics ....
But the oem kit cost like $500
the aftermarket with adaptor to xm blitzsafe was like $120, complete...and now that xm/sirrirus is almost the same, the blitzsafe adapotor seems to make sense...but just like the oem kit, it has huge limitations, due to the head unit. Limited display, and lack of extra features like scores, etc come to mind...it is early stuff...
