Hardwire the modulator???

Kind of an electronics oxymoron, since the output of the modulator is an FM signal that is intended to be inserted int othe antenna input of the Saab radio. That antenna input is very easy to get to without wrecking your dashboard or anything like that. The Sirius and XM units on the market that have the FM modulator output do not even have a straight DC output with a signal that would then go directly into the DC input of a compatable radio, so you are stuck on both ends. Had I been able to try a cassette adaptor with the XM Commander, I would have done that prior to pulling the plug on my trial of it, but there is no cassette adaptor for that unit.
Sad to say, but satellite radio needs to be properly integrated int othe car's main radio. Saab has just fallen behind the power curve on things like this and sattelite navagation.
