Satellite radios have increase in popularity since the first year of launching

. Today, more car owners want to install a portable satellite radio for their vehicles. Actually, installing satellite radio is not a difficult thing to do. You can simply have one into your car within a few hours. Here are ways on how to install satellite radio for your car.

First, it's very important to select the best model and type of satellite radio. You need to look for a satellite tuner or satellite radio unit that works best. You may search the internet to get the possible best one you can install into your car. When you think you find it, then have it purchased.

Once your satellite radio arrives, you are all ready to install it. What you must do is to mount the radio's cradle into your car. You may use through its adhesive end to place on the dashboard or even the windshield. Some people mount it with tabs to hang off of an air vent but this is more temporal.

Next, you have to install the power supply to the radio unit using the wire which is included. Plug the other end into your car once you find the port that matches the connector. Connect the antenna to the radio or tuner. Afterwards, attach the signal connector. The usual standard connection is with the cassette player adapter. Otherwise, you will need an FM modulator or RCA patch cables which you may need to install, too.

So, mount the antenna from the outside of your vehicle. The best place to mount it is on the back of the roof of your car. Have the wire of the antenna run through the car. If you are wondering the perfect place, run I through the weather stripping on the door of the car.

For FM modulator, mount it into a place where you can connect to your factory radio and the satellite radio unit. Remove the in-dash radio to have an access to the antenna input and power as well as ground wires. The modulator must be connected to both constant power source and switched on-off source. Insert fuse taps to any empty fuse holders which are located at the fuse panel. Properly secure the black ground wire beneath a screw. Then, plug the antenna of the car into the antenna input on the modulator. Connect the output to the radio's antenna input before you connect the satellite radio to the modulator. Try to find a frequency to check if your installation is successful.

You will probably access to hundreds of channels which indicates that your satellite radio installation is very successful. The only thing left you must do is to get on the wheels and have a smooth, long and enjoyable ride.

Satellite radios are definitely a great tool you can use to keep you in the mood while driving whether you take a very long road. Sit back and try to relax with your satellite radio on.
