    I found on search how to use shark fin with aftermarket radio, but I am going to add a 4Wheel Camper to my 2015 Tacoma with Entune audio and nav and the fin will be covered so I am looking for a cable that will plug into the Entune and split the XM and nav to plug into aftermarket magnetic antennas.

    Does such a beast exist?.

    Toyota wants $460 to move the antenna, will try my local stereo stores.

    I'm going to look at moving it to the hood on the right side, then it will be available if the camper is not on. Still leaves a hole in the cab roof, though.

    Kenwood GPS antenna will plug into the head unit. The XM and GPS wiring to the shark fin is part of the cabin wiring harness and not easily relocated.
