Default Sirius S50 Install.

I am getting ready to wire my S50 in, I have an aftermarket Pioneer with an Aux input on the front. Should I hardwire my S50 in the rear so I can use my MP3 Player on the Aux in the front or just swtich them out on the Aux when I want?

Also Does anyone in here have a S50 mounted up in a F-Body? Trying to figure out where to put mine. Thanks guys!

Yes, especialy if that model Pioneer has AUX-IN in the rear. Otherwise, you'll need to buy Pioneer's (or maybe PIE's) aux adapter that converts the IP-Bus port to RCA.

What model is it?

From that site:

A second auxiliary device can be connected to this unit when an optional adapter is connected to the IP-Bus connector on the rear panel. This auxiliary input (known as AUX 2) must be turned on. See below for more information on the 2nd Auxiliary Input.

2nd Auxiliary Input Ready: In addition to the front panel minijack Aux input (AUX 1), you can connect a second auxiliary component by connecting an IP-Bus/RCA connector. The CD-RB10 lets you connect one auxiliary component, and the CD-RB20 lets you connect an auxiliary component and a CD changer via the IP-Bus connector on the back of the head unit.
I'd suggest getting the CD-RB10 ($35) or CD-RB20 ($80) to connect the Sirius unit to the IP-BUS in the back of the headunit. Crutchfield also carries them.

Awesome, I will look into that. I just wanted to make sure the 2 wouldn't interfere with each other but now I see where it says the second aux, would have to be turned on. Thanks!

So does anyone run a S50 in an F-Body?
