The SMB connector on the Sirius Factory rcvr had the square shroud around it, with the clip tab, to hold it into the factory rcvr.
The Starmate when I had it installed in the truck, the SMB connector did not have the clip tab cover on it, just the SMB connector on the end of the cable.
Also the Sirius Factory rcvr I got from the Visteon dist, did not have a strain relief end on the antenna wire, so if you have a PnP unit, and move it into the house, you would need to be careful not to mess up the end of the cable, plugging and un plugging it.

The above quote explains what I was referring to in my previous post.
