Default Installed sportster replay '05 ram

Just wanted to show my install of a Sportster Replay in an '05 Dodge Ram.

My ram came with a factory installed Sirius radio, but I didn't like that the radio did not show song names, and didn't have other cool features like song search, etc. Also I really like the plug and play because I can take it with me and when I finish the install of the car kit in my wife's beetle I will be able to use it there as well.

brianrwebb from www.siriusbackstage.com made me a cable to go from my OEM sirius antenna to the replay. It's works awesome, I fully recommend it!


I used a Metra cigarette lighter adapter from Circuit City wired into the power going to my radio to power the replay. This way I don't have to use one of my truck's power adapters, everything is hidden, and the replay goes on and off with the key.


I used the P.I.E. Chry-02 auxillary input adapter for a good sound connection.


I mounted the replay using the mount that came with the car kit minus the suction cup. I bolted it in the recess around the hook on the dash that I never use. I also ran the wires into this recess through a hole I drilled and covered with a rubber grommet.


And here it is all finished up.



Here's my truck.
