The end connected to the brace is the connection my cable went into to use the factory antenna with my Sirius portable unit. Hope this makes sense now RoadrunnerII Sent from my Moto G Play using Tapatalk |

The plug end is the antenna end. Cable I bought plugged into it (male end) and I ran it up to the Sirius radio. To use a different antenna with the factory Sirius as in a magnetic mount you would need a gender changer. Use it to convert the magnetic mount antenna male end to a female end. Otherwise you have to pull the center stack of the dash apart and swap the antenna behind the factory Sirius radio. The attached pic is the end you need to connect with. It goes to the Sirius radio RoadrunnerII ![]() Sent from my Moto G Play using Tapatalk |

Mustanglee | So the cable that I see going into the yellow plug is the cable to the factory antenna - correct? |

I bought an extension did the reverse of what you are doing. I used the Ford factory antenna with my portable Sirius radio RoadrunnerII Sent from my Moto G Play using Tapatalk |

Mustanglee | OK, found it hiding in plain sight. Looks like you can pull the yellow plug and orange clip holds cable in plug? The cable for the magnetic antenna has a right angle plug, so I'm not sure that this will plug into the yellow Ford plug. I see FAKRA adaptors advertised online. Do I need one of these? Sorry for the dumb questions but I had shoulder surgery a few weeks ago and can't use my right arm to reach up and fiddle with the plug. |

It is the yellow plug with orange clip. It is mounted on the support just to the right of the emergence brake RoadrunnerII ![]() Sent from my Moto G Play using Tapatalk |

My 2016 has the antenna connector drivers side just above e brake. I know it is there because I used it for my portable Sirius XM radio RoadrunnerII Sent from my Moto G Play using Tapatalk |

Mustanglee | No, I have the RCA jacks. Ordered the adapter cord and putting in my XM car kit and magnetic antenna on the hood. Found a cool mount for the car kit that goes in the cup holder. Regarding antenna input under dash on drivers side, I believe that they eliminated that in 2015. I have searched and searched for it. Somebody posted a bulletin a while back that shows it behind the radio. No way am I going to try to pull the dash and wiring apart. With my luck, nothing would work after that. |

HeavyAssault | Any pics of your media center? Seems odd that yours is "missing" RCA inputs. I got the Sony system using an RCA-3.5mm jack adapter working great. Just ran the cable to the console for my input. |
