Sirius….

I need some help. I would like to install Sirius in my 07 Vantage. However I can not seem to find the proper tuner that would fit in the ash tray. Also where would I mount the antenna? Been looking around the internet but I can not seem to find where AM put the antenna for cars with built in Sirius. Please help me or send me to the right spot to find the information. Thanks in advance.

Does you car have the ipod connector ? If so, you can install a Bovee and then use the Sirius App on your phone to connect to it. May not be exactly what you are looking for but its a cheap and hassle free way to enjoy Sirius in the car. Bonus: you can listen to downloaded content from the Sirius app as well.

Think one of the benefits of Sirius is the fact that you don't need cell service, say you're in the boonies...that may be his use case

Check Scuderia parts. You should be able to find the Sirius module and where it is mounted in the illustrated parts list.

I don’t have the iPod connection. I want to go with the Sirius unit that modulates through the FM radio. I can’t seem to find the small Sirius unit that fits in the ash tray. I think for me that is the best way to go. The power is there from the cigarette lighter so if I can find the small Sirius unit I am set to go. The other thing is where is the factory mounts the Sirius antenna.
All of the diagrams I see show the GPS antenna but not the satellite radio antenna. Please keep up with the suggestions. Thanks.

On older vehicles when I installed a Sirius antenna, I located in inside thr vehicle with an unobstructed view (not being steel or aluminum, e.t.c, but plastic or certainly the windshield or rear hatch glass was ok.

Just going to ask, you did check to see if you already have the satellite module? You maybe able to locate a used one.

I always thought AM came with satellite. My 2009 has lifetime satellite.

Antenna mounts by the 3rd brake lamp by the GPS antenna on an aluminum tray. 2008 on was the OEM version with the Alpine system.
