Follow these detailed cable installation instructions:
Bring the cable from the antenna into the trunk at the front edge of the trunk lid.
Keep any bends in the cable loose. Tape or tie the cable along the inside of the
trunk lid to the trunk lid hinge strut.
Allow enough slack in the cable so the trunk lid can easily open and close and
keep the cable away from hinges, gears, etc., that could crimp or cut it. Route the
cable along the trunk wall and into the cabin through a conduit or along an existing
wiring harness.
Route the cable through the main cabin area under the interior trim, towards the
front of the vehicle. Use a plastic putty knife to lift the plastic trim just enough to
tuck the cable under underneath. Avoid side airbag locations on back pillars and
above the doors. (Airbag locations are marked with “SRS” logos.) Be careful not
to crimp or cut the cable.
Bring the cable out from the trim near the firewall and route it under the carpet
toward the dashboard or console. Coil any excess cable in a hidden location, such
as under the carpet, keeping it away from any vehicle pedals or controls. Secure
the excess cable with wire ties.
Bring the end of the cable out at the SIRIUS Vehicle Dock location. Leave yourself
enough cable so you can easily connect it to the antenna connector on the Vehicle
Dock.
