Removed Procede - Car won't start. Uhoh.
*EDIT* Issue solved - stupid me didn't seat the orange power wire fully.
Unlocked, popped hood, walked away for 30 minutes. Came back and did exact install procedure backwards. Got the orange wire replaced to stock location and all connectors lined up in place and locked in. It started on the first attempt and died quickly. Now it won't start. HELP! Edited to add image:

yep check the connectors are sitting correctly and that you did not switch the small ones around. Its always a failed connection.

The small gray subconnector is supposed to be to the rear, correct? That's what it looks like in the videos, and that's where it is.
All subconnectors are locked in, the slide lock is good on both larger connectors, both are fully seated, no bent prongs, no wires popped out of the subconnectors... hmm.

If it won't start, I'd double check the power connection.

Isn't that the orange wire? Isn't it in the right place?

Uhm...also clean out those leaves... But 20 bucks says it's an issue with the green power connector, either the power wires are not lined up or fully seated.

Leaves will be cleaned out after tomorrow's dealer visit. And yes, the orange wire wasn't seated at the bottom of the green connector. I feel stupid now, but DAMN glad it wasn't anything else! Sirius still says call for activation which sucks, but oh well.
Thanks everyone! I love you guys.
