auxmod install (headunit removal)

[NYMZ5]

If you're within about 40 miles of the NYC transmitters then it's great, beyond that the reception suffers and it goes in and out from dig to analog (Big sound difference). Most stations are broadcasting multiple genres/shows on the same frequency, as in 95.5-1, 95.5-2 etc. I think the sound beats SAT a bit but of course there's not as much selection but I like the savings (but I do miss XM Cafe). Check out my posts with pics in the Stereo/Electronics section, I have a Directed (they make most of Sirius' receivers) HD unit that fits perfectly in the module bay of the 5's stereo.

Can anyone give me an ok or better ideas for post #19 (just above)?

And anyone interested in an auxmod basic, they're back in stock and ship fast (2days before I got the shipping confirmation). They charge only 9$ to canada!

Woot!

Crutchfield has a GLI for the 3.5mm cable:

It's a lot cheaper and works just as well.

Nice!

But now I just have to wait for the Auxmod. I went for the RCA adapters.

Thanks for the link anyway a10!

Woohoo! I did it!

Intalled my AuxMod last week-end and it took about 1 hour! This was the first time I even dare dismantling a center console. It was pretty easy and dang now that thing sounds great .

To those who aren't sure yet, go ahead! No difficult at all!
