OEM XM SAT Antenna Adapter for Sirius Receiver
 
11 Attachment(s)
i've just recently joined to offer a solution for using the OEM XM SAT antenna that many of the current Civic's have on their roof, on aftermarket SAT receivers.

i've searched the Audio/Visual Electronics forum, but have found very little in the way of need for such an adaption, but post here thinking someone might find it meeting their needs.

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 tuners or receivers.

some Honda have a Single lead:
Attachment 40038

others have a Dual lead:
Attachment 40039

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:
Attachment 40041

copper collar and shrink tubing:
Attachment 40042

assembly:
Attachment 40043
Attachment 40044
Attachment 40045

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

i've also assembled 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. this adapter type comes in two pieces- one for the adapter cable and the other, a 20 foot extension coax for interfacing with your aftermarket SAT receiver up front at your headunit location (for either the Double or Single Honda OEM proprietary SAT antenna connector):
