The one i used disconnects the "through" signal (xm) when you plug in. Yours will tap into the xm line, so you will need to tune to channel 0 for use. On the up side, you won't need to unplug like i do.

Oh i can do this and keep my xm?would be nice to have bluetooth... I always assumed this would remove xm functionality.

take 2 on the tear sewing is much better. looks like this is one of them things you dont do well right out the box.

i left the first set of stitches in there, seemed to help. new stitches went in tight and stayed tight.

Yes you can. Just not at the same time.

I still done understand the plug in part and the thru part haha

You're sharing the line to the HU between xm x and aux. The switching jack only lets the HU see one at time. With yours, the Huh would see both all the time, so channel 0 is blank if you're using the aux.

i had them glasses yesterday too. made one stitch with out em and had to go back in to get em, getting old blows.

i think it was just the tear pulling back on me i guess. damn stitches just kept opening up, this time you gave em a tug and they stayed put. i used a doubled thread this time. last time was single thread. might have helped too.

Try this.

This is the xm module behind the glove box.
The green/white and brown/white are L and R (forget which is which) to the HU. All you're doing is interrupting or tapping into them to insert your jack. The black/white in the corner of the harness is the ground.
