Default OEM XM SAT antenna adapter for Sirius

after many different attempts at making an adaptable coax piece for the proprietary Honda XM antenna coax lead termination, i've found, through the combination of multiple RF connector parts, a solution that will enable one to use their OEM XM Honda antenna on aftermarket Sirius tuners or receivers.

some Honda have a Single lead:

others have a Dual lead:

either way, it will be necessary to remove the connector housing to expose the actual connector jack inside:


once the connector housing is removed, the assembly of my parts can begin:

adapter cable terminated in a RA SMB plug for the majority of car docks and direct tuners, however i can terminate to whatever your tuner or car dock accepts:

then i place a shrink tubing sleeve over the connector body, shrink it with some heat, and you're done:

i also make a TRUE OEM Plug-and-Play version that simply requires you to unplug your antenna jack from the OEM XM Sat Tuner and plug it into my adapter cable, and it comes in two pieces- one for the adapter cable and the other, a 20 foot extension coax for interfacing with your aftermarket SAT receiver:
