Not liking XM too much, Sirius has better music and more to my liking. What would I need to replace XM?

Thanks:worship:

Yes. Sirius makes a module that replaces the XM for $99.00. I agree XM sucks. I don't want to spend 99.00 on a module for a leased car so I don;t use sat radio, but let me know how i works for you.

Do I go to GM or Sirrius for the module? Also, do I need a new antenna?

Thanks

I found the module (SIR_GM1), but do I need a new antenna?
Thanks

I just purchased the SIR-GM1. It has the antenna (low profile magnetic) included with a 21 foot cord. I dont have the XM radio active on my car, so I may have to have the head unit tech tooled to make it all work. It should be plug and play with the unit. Most of the time will be running the cable from the radio and finding a good spot to hide the antenna and still get the required reception. There is a thread in the CTS section and I believe now in the FAQ section on this.
