    Walmart has (well, mine did) a crazy octopus looking antenna adapter that should cover what you need. Its a hack way to do it though.

    The one you should use is by Scosche...

    The one local to me didnt have much of an assortment, instead offering the cheesy octopus affair. It was enough to get me going, but I replaced it with a real one after the weekend.

    Ah. I guess different walmarts carry things more suited for their location. One walmart by me has an entire aisle devoted to Scosche products while another has just a little 4'x4' board with the wiring basics by the cheap HU's...

    I am curious about this octopus thing though... Was it every possible proprietary antenna connector to a standard connector type adatper?
