Installing Sirius Satellite Radio On A 2005 Tacoma - Taco Tunes From Outer Space
16. After all the factory clips are transferred to the Scosche kit the radio cage and new head unit are installed.
17. With the new dash kit completely assembled and ready to be reinstalled we can move to the Sirius tuner. Adam started by plugging in our new wiring harness kit for the radio.
18. Here's a look at the Sirius tuner. Everything needed for out-of-this-world radio (and even a little Howard Stern).
19. You'll need to pick an antenna placement that gives the antenna a good line of sight to the satellites above.
20. Once the antenna is placed you can route the cable to the tuner box location.
21. There's plenty of room behind the radio, so that made the perfect spot for the tuner.
22. There was one connection we had to make that required us to strip back two wires. We needed to tap the harness to get power and ground for the Sirius unit.
23. With power and ground connected, the tuner box is velcro'd out of the way and the new unit can be plugged in. Then the dash can be snapped back together.
24. Not bad - easy install and even easier listening! With over 120 channels it's like having your very own satellite dish in the back of your truck.
