i left mine in the car and just hid it next to the rear passengers speaker. there is enough room there it doesnt move, good reception and that way no one can see it or mess with it or the wiresMaple50175 - you're annoying =P

so i hook up everything, and thought there would be a small subscription or some shit in the box.......fuck no. thats how they get ya, lol.
anyways, im not liking how i have too tune into a station too pick up xm, so im going too run an AUX input into my reciever and run it that way.
also, the hardwire kit (http://www.crutchfield.com/p_607SIRP...irpvk1&tp=1091)
will allow me too free up my cig lighter and itll
get a better connection. i completely forgot where i was going with that as i was looking up the URL.Last edited by Vtechno; 12-04-2008, 09:46 PM.

i have mine coming through fm.... and yeah its a drag. the vol doesnt go as loud and i cant adjust my source level either . the hardware kit would be a great idea and help clean up a mess of wires. if you dont mind me askin where are u planning on mounting the unit??? what aftermarket deck do you have also?
oh yeah i also rewired my cig lighter to stay on alll the time and ran it to come out the side of the console. im gettin ready to place a volt meter in the stock outlet location unless i decide to buy some pillar pods sorry to thread jack by the way.Members Ride sold...
