HELP with Audiophile H/U Upgrade

Hello,
I need some direction on a little issue thatI cant get my head around.

I am upgrading one Audiophile HU for another. The one I want to install has MP3 capability and the one I want to get rid of does not...

However, after I unwrapped the box on the MP3 HU, I discovered that it does not have an AM/FM antenna plug at the rear. It appears to have a Sirius antenna plugin instead.

Is there any way, or any type of adapter that I can buy so I can use my exisiting AM/FM plug that is behind my dash with this new HU?

Here is a picture of the rear of the HU for clarification...

...also, just for reference, here is a picture of the rear of another HU showing the traditional AM/FM plugin.

that is the standard plug on the 07 and newer f-150's. you need to get an adapter, to go from the old style antenna you have in your pickup, to the "chrysler" style plug in that you have on that audiophile HU.

Yep, you just need the adaptor. You can get them at most audio shops.
