How to xm fm adapter

[proneto911]

Wondering how to attach a SiriusXM Fm direct adaptor like SIRIUS FMDA25 FM Direct Adapter. the car has a special plug and I want to keep the original stereo and i figure putting in the XM tuner is hell and expensive. When I have money I will do it along with the ?h7 stereo and do all that i can. Along with trying to put in original remote start for it shouldn't be too hard i think

does the stock, (Non my-link) stereo have XM capability built in? XM and Sirius are the same...aren't they (they merged) ?

 

[proneto911]

Yeah they merged but I'm trying to connect the fm direct adaptor to the antenna and playing it off the FM side instead of using the AUX in the car. And yes its a non SiriusXM stereo sadly. And going to the library today and seeing if it's worth adding the non mylink stereo to my car with SiriusXM.

Is there any way to do this or do I have to put in the non mylink stereo and try and see if I can put in the SiriusXM bits.

There are 2 non mylink stereos. The one I have and the upgraded one that has SiriusXM I think and has Bluetooth.

What type of sound system do you have? I have a top of the line (2012) and it was part of the radio (AM / FM / XM) I could be wrong, they my have changed it since then.

Only thing I know as of right now is it's a 4 speaker system all in the front. And the actual stereo looks almost square and non mylink

 

[Natesriv]

still confused, aren't your options AM - FM - XM? so you can just play XM through your stereo...OR... does it not give you the ability to play your XM/Sirius that way?

You have a portable XM/Sirius player?....and can't transfer that account to the car??

I can see what you mean if that's the case

 

[proneto911]

I do not have the option for SiriusXM on my current stock stereo. All it has is AM, FM and AUX. I have the SiriusXM FM adaptor to plug in the portable Onix plus SiriusXM player. I'm trying to plug in the FM adaptor to the antenna and somehow still get AM and FM to keep working on the stock stereo.

 

[proneto911]

No adapters to do this? Or any way to get around the universal antenna adapter and have it plug in to the new Europe adaptor

 

[proneto911]

Will this work for what I'm trying to do?

 

[proneto911]

Really nothing? You guys answer back and now when I get to a non SiriusXM non mylink no one wants to help? This is my second post on this. I just need advice on if it's worth putting in the non mylink with SiriusXM stereo and put in the SiriusXM module.

A simple it's too hard and links up to other sub systems would do instead of ignoring people.

Dude seriously??? If nobody has given you the answer you're looking for and you've posted this in two different threads now, then maybe you're not going to get the answer you want. Try it out and see what happens. Jeez. Don't get your panties in a bunch everytime you don't get the answer you want to hear within 30 seconds.

Dude, seriously? You can come here and bitch, but are unable to type a simple search in to Google?

Buy one of these and quit being a baby.

What year Sonic?
Looking online, I believe any XM station is digital, while FM is analog...so you'd need a modulator (like you 1st posted)... antenna wise....but does it work with the Aux port???

 

[proneto911]

First off it wasn't 30 seconds. Its a few hours and I'm in process of doing it and have everything apart. And I was trying to look on google for what the connectors name so I can get the right one but can't seem to find it besides a European FM connector. And I did ask on a previous post if the one I linked would work so I'm trying to do the research.I was expecting to not be able to get the right parts or not being able to do it on your guys end and at that point id end up modifying it but id figure id ask since I couldnt find anything for a few days or the wrong search terms.

As to natesriv its a base? 2012. And I have the SiriusXM FM modulator that has universal FM antenna male and female ends. It does work with my AUX port but I use my phone on that since I don't have the Bluetooth

This is what you'll need. It will connect between the factory antenna and head unit. When your Sirius unit is powered up it will use the XM signal, when powered down it goes back to am/fm

Already have that part. I'm wondering how to hook it up my car has the special connectors not the normal close to universal antenna. Wondering what adaptors I need to connect both ends so I get a radio signal on the current stereo. The connections I believe looks like the European connections.

Here's most of them. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/cat_i170_antenna-adapters.html

the next time you think about getting pissy about someone else doing your homework for you perhaps you should try to be a little more humble and patient.

THIS ISN'T A SONIC ISSUE

[proneto911]

Yes perhaps I was a bit snappy on getting it done and sorry about that. I will do a bit more searching next time.
