Sirius Antenna Help - See Photo
I just purchased a stock Sirius mopar radio for $30 on ebay. I have an antenna for my external Sirius radio. I need this connector pictured below to finish the install. I think its a FARKA connector. Does anyone know what the name of this connector might be?

I don't know what the back of the radio your installing the antenna on looks like, but, I didn't have the pink adapter and mine still went on.
Have you tried it yet or just trying to get all the parts first? If so, go ahead. It fits just fine.

You were close....FAKRA is the name.
MOPAR factory radios require the FAKRA connector. There are adapter kits that will allow you to connect SMB to FAKRA if that is what you are needing to do.

No hammer needed SMB has the same plug that FAKRA use on the inside of the green plastic plug , all you need to do is line up SMB (sirus) plug to the center round part of the FAKRA plug and push hard this is were the wd-40 comes in it helps. Ive done this on my mygig rer

But, as long as your radio works and you are happy, then its all good.
