I looked at an XM radio today, does anyone have any feed back on them?

Also any input on where to install?

Hey there,

I have XM, and its great, but there are some commmercials, which I was unaware of when purchasing. I have a friend that has Sirius and that was cool as well, and no commercials. Check the channel line ups on both and see which suits you better. Both are great. As far as install, I have mine built in to an aftermarket radio.

Kevin,
Which radio did you put in, and how did they modify the stock head unit?

I just put XM in the H2 about a month ago. It works great I love it. I mounted it above in the center where the overhead lights are for the driver and passenger.

We have XM in our 03 Yukon. Everyone that listens to it wants one! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif Sure wish the H2 had a factory installed unit. Some day... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gifBIG-C

Thanks guy's. I am really sick of hearing commercials especially in the mornings on the way in.

When you say in the middle where the overhead lights go, do you mean installed inside the middle flip down compartment?

I bought a Delphi SkyFi about a month ago and I LOVE it! I have it in the car and on my desk at work. Squizz is my fave channel. That and XMLM http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

Picked mine up at Wal-Mart http://www.ezwebsales.com/images/walmart.gif

In one month of having it at work, two other guys here now have it. Everyone that sees & hears it has to have one! Note - One of the 2 guys went with Sirius and his reception sux.

I hope the 05's have XM in the head unit. Otherwise I'll be mounting the SkyFi somewhere...

I don't have it in my H2 but do have it in my Cheyy SS pickup. Its the best thing to happen to radio. XM now has close to one million subsribers while Sirus has about 100,000. Experts said it would take about two million for them to stay around.
