Stereo Advantage: $49.90 and you’ll be up and running…although it depends what you fucked up, as in if your car comes in on a flat bed, we might charge you a few bucks extra ---

i have it in my subaru and i just installed it into my dad’s van this past weekend. try to find a FAQ on how to get the radio out. once that is done, you can just run the antenna wire down through the center console and to the trunk by pulling it from the center console to the driver side door area by popping off the plastic pieces and pulling the wire under the carpet. a coat hanger and some tape is a huge help. ---

does your sirius radio have an FM transmittor? may solve your problem of needing your headunit out… i just bought my dad a sirius receiver + home kit + car kit for $39.99 and it has a transmittor, so am I wrong to assume they all do? ---

my $1700 headunit lets you plug the sirius receiver right into it. i assume in most cases, even with aftermarket radios, they don’t have a sirius port, so what’s wrong with the FM transmittor idea? oh well, getting details is like pulling teeth. good luck with that.
