Are you talking about an antenna adapter or the actual sirius unit that you have to buy for the Kenwood decks?

I just put a kenwood in my truck and had to buy the Sirius kit from Crutchfield which included a new Sat radio antenna. I could not get the factory installed Siruis antenna to work, or be compatable with the new Kenwood deck.
