Editorial Review:Product Description:SIRIUS plug-and-play or portable radio installation kit * hard-wired 5-volt and 12-volt power adapters * FM modulation relay and RCA audio cable for sound transfer * low-profile swivel bracket *
Amazon.com Product Description:Tired of paying the pros big bucks to install your car's audio equipment? Do it yourself with this Sirius professional installation kit, which includes everything you need to install a Sirius plug-and-play or portable satellite radio receiver in your vehicle. Outfitted with an FM direct audio relay, a hard-wired power adapter (dual voltage), an RCA audio cable, a universal mounting bracket, and a host of additional cables and mounting hardware, the kit is a must for satellite radio fans who want the best possible sound while driving. The kit centers around the low-profile metal mounting bracket, which comes with a detachable swivel base. Simply mount the bracket to the dash or console, then slide the car cradle of your Sirius receiver into the slot. The kit works with just about any receiver, including the Sportster, Sportster 3 or 4, Starmate, Starmate 3 or 4, Starmate Replay, Sportster Replay, Sirius One, Stiletto 10 and 100, the S50, Stratus, and InV.
Listeners have two distinct connection options. The first employs the FM direct audio adapter, which plugs into the rear antenna connection of your factory or after-market car stereo. By connecting directly, you'll enjoy a better sound than provided by the receiver's built-in wireless FM transmitter, with no static or interference to get in the way. The second option is to plug your satellite receiver directly into your stereo's auxiliary input, provided it has one. The latter option further improves the sound, as users don't need to rely on the FM airwaves at all to transfer the audio signal.
The hard-wired power adapter, meanwhile, works with both 5-volt and 12-volt vehicle power sources (depending on which Sirius tuner you own). By using this hard-wired connection, you'll leave your cigarette lighter free to charge other devices, such as your cell phone or personal DVD player. The adapter features both two-pin and three-pin connectors, a pair of 16-inch wire leads used to supply power and ground, and a 2 amp fuse and fuse holder that go between the adapter's power wire and your vehicle's accessory wire.
The professional vehicle kit requires a compatible Sirius car docking kit and is backed by a one-year warranty.
What's in the Box Universal mounting bracket, detachable swivel base, FM direct audio relay with 16.5- foot minijack cable, dual-voltage power adapter with 16-inch wire leads, 5.5-foot minijack-to-RCA cable, 3-foot 12-volt power supply cable with three-pin connection, 3- foot 5-volt power supply cable with two-pin connection, 2 amp fuse with fuse holder, 12-inch nylon strap, three plastic wire clips, 18-gauge butt connector, user's manual.

Sirius pro install kit is a great upgrade for your car
I have enjoyed my Sirius radio for over a year now but all the extra wires hanging all over my dash was not good. The reception was not good with the items supplied in the radio car kit that came with my unit. For less than $30, I got this new pro kit and installed it in a few hours. Now, I have NO wires, hanging from my dash and my unit sounds great due to the in-line antenna adapter. Now I have my FM tuned to a station that makes my Sirius sound great. Also, the charger adapter that comes in the pro kit gives you to power choices for ALL Sirius units, either 5 volt or 12 Volt, there are two different power cords for the different voltages. No more wires hanging, great sound and versatility.

Allows for clean install.
This really does a nice job of allowing for a clean install. Hooking my Sportster 5 direct to the head unit versus the built in FM wireless provided for much better sound. You get more than you need in the kit to cover many options and installs and for that reason it might be a little overpriced but well worth it for a cleaner look.

Everything you need for the installation
You can hook up your Stilleto and have wires running all over your dash board or you can buy this kit and the vehicle kit and do a nice clean installation. But I wonder why there are two kits you have to buy. Why not include it all in a single kit?

Easy to install
This professional kit was easy to install once finding the correct wiring diagram for My car. I found the directions straight forward and the system was easy to hide under the dash. It was a 45 minute install once I had everything located and ready to go. I would recommend this for the above average techie looking for a great product. Mike
