If you have the USA Spec iPod adaptor and you are splicing the XM wire here's what you need to do:

Ok....If you have the glove box apart there's a black plastic piece that I believe has two clips. Pull the black plastic piece down and you should see the XM box. The cable harness is on the left side of the box (closest to the radio). You should be able to disconnect the harness from underneath where the glove box was. Then you should be able to reach the XM wiring harness from the hole where the radio is. There was a plastic tie down anchoring the wiring harness to a piece of metal just behind where the radio is....I removed it completely which made the wiring harness much easier to get too. Now you need to peal back the electrical tape that's wrapped around the wires. I believe the wire that needs to be spliced is the purple one (but make sure b4 you do). You will want to cut it as far away from the XM box as you can, so you have enough play in it. Using electrical tape, tape up the end that it not being spliced. I then rewrapped the harness (except for the wire being spliced) with electrical tape and connected it back to the XM box. The interesting part is going to be where you end up placing the box. Mine fit snuggly behind a bar on the right side behind the radio. It was a tight fit, but it worked. Good luck and let me know how it works out for you.
