    i was nosing around in my under bunk door on drivers side today and found out my truck has a factory installed siruis antenna and reciever moun ted to the under side of bed. i originally thought it was just part of the qualcomm from prevoius owner. i do not have the factory radio that came in the truck so can i get a new single din radio that is sat ready to work with this reciever. i would like to find a kenwood but any would do. do they make a adapter that would let me connect this with a aftermarket radio?

    You'll need to find out the make and model of the receiver, then check to see what models of dash stereo are compatible with it.

    Yes, Freightliner sales the Delphi brand for around $100 that will work with the factory mounted antenna and wiring harness; if previous owner didnt hack into it in which you will just have to cut and twist the wires together..........

    i will have to pull the dash and see if i can find the sat plug wires. the radio that is in there now is a panasonic but its not sat capable so maybe he left the wireing for the satalitle alone
