Ok. So. I didn't know this about the unit when I bought it. My escalade was haveing issues with the radio (head unit) receiving a audio signal from the factory DVD player in the second row seats. So I thought. Hay. I use to have a fm mogulator way back in the day for when xm was xm and it first came out. I could plug any standards 3.5mm in to it and it would work! I'll just buy this and do the same. Well. Turns out. You can't do that with this. I even bought 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapters to try and see if it would work. No go. Apparently. The new xm radios send out a didgital signal and not a analog signal. And that's what you need. An analog signal. So don't buy this. At least. Not if your going to try using it like I was planing on doing. It won't work. You will need a iSimple IS32 TranzIt USB Universal...fm modulator. That's what I got. And after finding the left and right and ground audio wires in the wire harness in the DVD player in back. And running a simple rca left and right all the way up to the dash and connecting it to a rca/3.5mm adapter. It worked great! I picked the one up with the USB charger for 50$. Oh. You will need two Atenna adapters too if your going to use your factory head unit. The factory has a weird plug. Not the normal antenna plug. I hope this helps anyone who looking to do what I wanted to do.

This item is for newer satellite radio receivers than what i have; it wouldn't work with my vehicles antenna, nor would it attach to the satellite receiver i have (mine is probably at least 8yrs old). If you have an older receiver, this will not work for you.

I ended up spending about 70 bucks on equipment that didn’t fit my vehicle. Drove 3000 miles and couldn’t use my portable satellite system. Disappointed!

I didn`t want this in my car, the geek installers put it there, and charged me for it. I bought the sirius 360L module, because it came blutooth connectable, so I didn`t need to connect with the FM radio, and I told them that before the install, but they didn`t seem to listen, I got the car back with the radio playing on FM, and was not happy.

The Best Buy salesperson took down my info- what kind of radio I had- and immediately had me buying this model. A week later, it arrived- not compatible with my radio. Sending it back was easy and painless, and refund was posted quickly. But check with Sirius/XM before purchasing, to make sure you are getting the right adapter, not the one that is "right" because Best Buy sells it.

Tried to get it to work right but the sound and static didn't change
