I got an XM radio xpress car kit. How do I set it up in my 2001 Honda Civic?

I received an XM radio with a car kit. I have a 2001 Honda Civic ( 4 door). I pulled out all the stuff and I am lost with all the connections. Does any one have any insight for me?

It all depends on how you wish to hook it up.
You can set it up to run off of your car radios FM frequency using just the XM system itself (Set your radio to the same frequency as your XM frequency)
Or you can but, and plug in an antenna adapter. This will require you to take your dash apart a little bit and connect a splicer cable to your antenna jack coming out of the back of your stereo. Then you will repeat the same steps as the cars radio setup I spoke of.
The final option is an AUX port, but the 2001 Civic didnt have an AUX port so dont worry about that one.

Now to set up the system itself. You should get all the wires out and determine how you are going to run them prior to starting.

You will have four main compontents (if doing the setup to run through car stereo).
1. XM radio
2. Power Cable
3. Satellite Antenna
4. FM Antenna

You can mount the XM radio where ever you want by any means.
You want the Satellite antenna to be preferably mounted on the top of you roof near the back window. This will take most of your time as you will need to take some interior parts off of your car.
Next you want to mount the FM antenna, you didnt say what model Civic you have so I will just assume yours has the antenna integrated into the rear windsheild. Place the FM antenna as close as possible to your antenna box (odd looking box on your rear windshield).

Plug your power cord into your 12v power (cigarette lighter)

And you are ready to go.

I hop I answered your question, you were kind of vague about what you needed. If you need more help just post it in your original question and I’ll try to help out.
