Help installing Sirius to 2001 Yukon

[sjhart]

Can someone help me (step by step) of how I can install a Sirius sat receiver to my 2001 Yukon? I have one of the portable head units which has a mounting kit. The biggest issue is how to run the antenna (wire) to the outside of the vehicle. I don't know anything about removing panels, etc. Really appreciate any help. Thank you. SJ

Im in the same situation, Im thinking of going Sirius myself. I can do everything else, just running the antenna wire is making me think, cause i dont want to screw up any weatherstripping or cause a leak.

 

 

where did alot of yall mount your head units, note this is going on a stock radio set up.

i purchased the Kenwood portable unit.

 

I ain't real pretty but I had them stick the thing on the top of the dash directly above the radio. Yep, stuck it on the dash. Very easy to use.

 

I recognize my limitations so I had the dealer install it. It uses a wireless FM broadcast interface.

 

The power was plugged in the aux outlet. That sucked so i took of the bezzel loose and hard wired it to the back of the Aux outlet.

 

They ran the atennae wire out the same hole as the roof mounted brake light.

 

Hope this helps some.

Never mind the question. My dealer has someone that is going to install it for $100. Thanks. SJ

2K4, I don't know if you still need the information but you run the antenna wire through the opening behind the 3rd brake light and then under the headliner. I ran mine down the left front pillar then under the dash to the reciever. Works great. Now I just need to get my subs in and I will be all set.
