Aspects of the disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for synchronization to a common synchronization reference source. For example, the apparatus can include receiving circuitry and processing circuitry. The receiving circuitry can be configured to receive from a BS a signaling indicating a timing offset between sidelink synchronization timings of the apparatus and a GNSS. The processing circuitry can be configured to adjust the sidelink synchronization timing of the apparatus based on the timing offset.
