This unit made a huge difference to my listening experience. I can set the car to one radio station and leave it there. No matter the radio station strength the SiriusXM always comes in crystal clear.

If you live in an Urban area with lots of FM stations you will need this. If you have an older car you will need adapter cables. If you are not handy you should have a professional install it for you. Figure about 75 bucks. Once it's in it works great. This enables the tuner to pump the signal directly into your FM radio without the interference of local stations. Makes the tuner sound much better. It's not cheap but worth the price when finished. Sirius could have just made the FM transmitter stronger but they didn't.

This was the answer to my problem of experiencing static interference after I installed my new Sirius unit. Since my CD receiver was so old, I did not have an AUX input. As a result, I had to rely on the radio frequency to hear satellite radio. The problem was the signal from the antenna was not very good. This solved my problem instantly. It works great and was easy to install once I took my radio out again. Had I just purchased this to begin with installation would have been a snap. I highly recommend this product if you believe your radio does not have the proper inputs.

This Direct adapter worked very well for my situation. I would rather keep my factory stereo and connect this adapter instead of spending more money and time with a new head unit. This adapter works just as it is advertised with the satellite radio you are using. Clear sounds with it.

My Polaris ranger radio does not pick up radio stations very good. So, I added this FM antenna adapter to connect my Sirius satellite radio.
Now I can not only listen to any music, but have 100% signal level to the radio.

So I recently changed out an ancient Sirius radio in my car. Got a new one from Sirius with an install card. Found out after the install that you needed this fm direct connection or you just hear fuzz on your radio. Not included in the install and another 100 bucks. Went to Best Buy and bought this. Took 5 minutes to install, All is well in the universe.

If you have an older car without an AUX jack, this is a great option for getting SiriusXM. The adapter doesn't require external power. Just plug one end into your receiver and the other into your FM antenna.
I have a VW Jetta so I needed to get an FM adapter. But even with that extra step, it's a very simple install.

SiriusXM radios do not work with their FM transmitters that are built into their aftermarket radios. Couldn’t get a good station on my car radio no matter what frequency I tried, this was the answer. Easy peasy to install.

My car stereo does not have an Auxiliary audio input, so I have to use the weak FM transmitter on my Sirius radio. This adapter sends the signal directly into my stereo's head unit, and eliminates all interference from other radio transmissions. It was pretty easy to install once I was able to pull my radio out from the dash.

The aux jack on my head unit quit working and I didn’t want to replace the head unit so I put this in between the SiriusXM receiver and the factory antenna. Tuned it to an unused FM station and problem solved. Added bonus the installation is much cleaner.
