Any 2011+ guys with satellite radio, I need help

I wanted to post this in general to get the most attention as I'm going crazy trying to figure out getting sirius satellite in my X. I have the base sound with navi so no satellite from factory. I've found the oem sirius module/tuner on ebay and such but I have no clue how to go from the navi to the sirius box. I've researched for 2011 its different then the 08 and 10's, as there's no cable I can find behind my glove box for the sirius. So I'm hoping anyone with a 2011+ with satellite could take off their glove box and take pics of the sirius box and the cable from the box to the head unit/navi. It should be a 2x7 pin connector. I figured I can buy any sirius antenna and wire it in I'm just completely lost on connecting the sirus box to the navi.

I'll try and take a picture tomorrow if no one beats me to it. I have my wideband back there too so there are some extra wires, but it should be clear enough.

here's these if it helps at all! the colorful wire bunch goes off to the right somewhere and then back. the black single wire on top goes left, behind a piece above the blower motor/filter then up to towards the nav (not sure if it actually connects there as I didn't check)

side note: sirius' quality is poor, i wouldn't spend the money on adding it the car if it didn't already come with it. i use it when i don't feel like messin with spotify or when i'm in the middle of nowhere with no cell service. i just renewed after my trial ended though for 6 months @ $29... cheap enough for the convenience.

the pics help me understand how its set up, but I can't find any harness that would go to the radio from the sirius box. And theres nothing on parts websites where to add the harness. Can't believe how difficult it is to add oem sirius, esp since I've seen it advertise that my 2011 is satellite ready

Went digging behind the glove box and sound some harnesses I didn't see before, but none of them the same as the size for the sirius box. Anyone know what this harness is for?

Did the Sirius module install. But the icon won't appear on my mmcs.
what is the yellow plug on top of the Sirius module and where does it connect to. Is it pre existing in the car as well?

This will be a good alternative to buying a brand new headunit.
