Installing Factory Sirius

Installing Factory Sirius
I am still trying to figure out how to install the Ford Factory Sirius tuner that I bought on ebay. I figured out where it mounts...just now so sure of the wiring connections.
Sorry for the sloppy image below, but best I could do. Does anyone know what the connections are for? I know "A" fits into the back of the radio, but would have to remove a connector from the truck harness in order to have an opening for it. I could not find anywhere in the truck for "B" to fit Any ideas?

The harness you have is odd I have never seen one like that. Is there a pass trough for the 16 pin plug. because I happen to know of a harness that will work for you. It is a "T" harness that will supply power and ground. It would take some minor modifacation but it will be just plug and play after. If you google 2U6F-14588-BA it will bring up a couple of sites. This part # is made to work with the old visteon sirius tuner but you can easily make it work the dephi sirius tuner. Let me know if you are interested, and i will let you know what you need to do.

I have the same kind of harness shown in okstategrad2002's pictures. I bought the factory headunit, factory sirius tuner, and factory harness as a set on eBay for my 05 Lariat Supercrew. I was told they came out of an '06.
The part numbers I have are:
Headunit: 6L3T-18C815-FE
Sirius Tuner: 6L3R-18C963-AE
Harness: 6L3T-14K024-AE (this one's difficult to read)
I can't figure out where to connect the smaller connector on the harness (labeled 'B' in the picture). There is nothing on the HU that it would fit, so I suppose it is meant to connect into the truck's harness - but I don't seee the male version of this connector anywhere behind the dash. The two wires going into this small connector are black/green and lt green/violet.
Any ideas??? Thanks in advance for any help.

I can tell you that on my truck--06 with factory sirius the two wire plug goes to a connector on the right hand side of the stereo support bracket ---although I dont know for sure what they are I suspect power and ground. I hope to find out because I have taken the tuner out of my truck ---like the options s50 have better --but plan to use the tuner in my wifes freestyle.

update ---just installed mine in my wifes freestyle the small connector is indeed a power and ground I just tapped into the light power and grounded it to the main support bar behind radio ---black with stripe is ground --everything works great hardest part was running the antenna wire --all the presets are actually saved in the sirius tuner ---which was cool didnt need to reprogram all of them.

I have a 2006 F150 with the 6cd HU. i have the sirius tuner that I purchased with the 6cd HU. But I had no harness to connect from the HU to the sirius tuner.
