2005 CLK320 Sirius Radio Install - Can't find Power
I just purchased a 2005 CLK320 without the Sirius module installed. Everything says the car is pre-wired for Sirius (SDAR) module. I purchased one online. I found the wiring for the antenna, and wiring for the fiber connection, but no POWER - All the notes I see say its with the other parts of the wiring??? I found some other connectors, but no 4 prong piece that will go into the SDAR????
Help?
Thanks

Besides the tuner (B67830060) and an antenna, you need all these parts:
B67830073 - SDAR assembly kit (the bracket and some bolts)
B67830116 - SDAR wiring harness
B67830112 - SDAR-MOST wiring harness
B67830093 - SDAR antenna line
I suspect you are missing the wiring harness. Here are all the instructions:

Update!! Based on a document you included I was able to determine I was attempting to attach to the location where the amplifier would be located. I looked under a large metal plate at the back of the trunk, as pictured in the document retrofit cabriolet and found the proper wiring!!! It's all there. I now just need the bracket.
More updates as I get parts.

*** Note to pull the fiber ends out of the connectors: 1. take a small screwdriver and pull the internal center out of the connector box. 2. insert a very small screwdriver in the hole underneath the connector that is exposed in step one. 3. Carefully pull the connector out. 4. insert proper connector as needed.****
Thanks to everyone

Glad you got it working! Those fiber connectors make sens once you examine how they are made. My understanding is the raw end on the fiber that clips into the connector is standard across all implementations - automotive (MOST, D2B and other make's styles), networking, and even home audio. The only difference is that the outer shell connector changes with application.
