sirius hard-wired diy?

i know there are diy's for sirius/xm, but everybody seems to use the crappy fm modulator and plug into the cigarette lighter way, and/or use the factory radio. i want a hard wired version. i have a starmate, and it mounts to the window, but i need a diy on how to hard wire the power in, and the best way to route the power and signal wires (signal plugs into the aux jack). the only thing that i can use from the other guides is the antenna routing.

i would usually take it to circuit city, but they're no more, and best buy wants $70 (circuit city charged $40). best buy also wanted $60 to rewire the power outlet to be always on (they first claimed this couldn't even be done), when circuit city did it for $30, so screw best buy. i also can't find any any installers around where i live either (60137), and some crazy custom shop would probably want a lot anyways.
