|Montana Bengal| Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 So I have a 2008 Ford Escape and I know we could add sirius to the stereo (not currently build in, but there is a 'Sat' button.) I was thinking I could use this [url="http://www.amazon.com/SIRIUS-SCC1-Connect-Universal-Tuner/dp/B000Q9UFKU/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top"]http://www.amazon.co..._pr_product_top[/url], but I'm unsure if I'd need anything else. Cruchfield tells me that I need $170 adaptor, but this Amazon listing makes me think I wouldn't need anything else. (What I'm looking at is this "Interface cable combines power, audio, and control through a single connection providing a direct audio connection to a headunit." Anyone have any ideas?

-GoBengals- Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 thats *probably* all you need. I added it long ago using the sportsster radio, if the car already has the sat button, it likely only has the aux input thus you would need the anteanna and box you linked.. so that *should* be it..

-GoBengals- Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 the accord i have now is a 2004, it came with XM, luckily the XM best of sirius package came out by the time i got the car so I had nfl radio and stuff... i cancelled it about 18 months ago, got tired of calling in for cheaper bill and started using my ipod more... but i do kinda miss it...

Orange 'n Black Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 I'm not positive on the original question, but FYI there is no reason to ever pay full price for a Sirius subscription. I got a free 6mo with my new truck and I was going to let it expire, and they called me twice a day until I finally got another 6mo for $30. Most any service rep will offer you discounts immediately, and according to the Internet, you can get them down to as low as $5 for a couple months. $15/mo isn't worth it to me, but 5 is. Sirius is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|Montana Bengal| Posted December 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yeah the tricky thing is that my wife's aunt and uncle pay for our subscription....so it has been awesome. The 'external' radio is kind of a pain and dying. So I'm hoping we can swap it out for the above part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
