+--- Thread: Need advice on installation of Sirius (/showthread.php?tid=2079)
- Rink911 - 01-21-2010
My wife and I recently sold our Boxster and moved into the 2002 911 C2 Cabriolet world. I am currently prepping the C2 for the three month winter sleep. One of my jobs is to install a Sirius Stratus 5 in conjunction with the Porsche CR-220. I need to know where the Porsche FM antenna is located so I can mount the Sirius FM extender antenna in close proximity. Ideally the direct wire method ( for the best signal) is the best method but this seems to be not possible with the CR-220...at least for me. Perhaps someone from Riesentoter has been here before and successfully solve my problem. Thanks for any advice.

I have installed Sirius in a numer of cars. I do not know how your Sirius works, but if you are using the radio tuner as the receiver for the Sirius, you usually do not have to play with the antennna, as long as you are using an unused radio channel. My H-3 however had too much interference and I had to connect the sirius directly to its antenna.

Aaron..thanks for the feedback. I am getting a signal on 88.1 , the Sirius default frequency, albeit, a weak signal. If I knew where the FM antenna was located in my 2002 911 C2 Cab I could use the supplied FM modulator to enhance the wireless signal.
