dunefreak Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I have XM in my Silverado and was told (by cdavego) that there is an adapter so you can hook up Sirius satellite radio instead of XM with the factory radio. Anyone know of such an adapter? I can't find anything on it. Sirius Satellite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I can assure you that Sirius is a much better channel. Of course that's my humble opinion. -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunefreak Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 I can assure you that Sirius is a much better channel. Of course that's my humble opinion. -_- Which is exactly why I want it in my truck! I have XM in the truck and Sirius on my Dish at home. I think Sirius is way better!

Vegas FX400 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 just get the one that plays off an fm frequency.....that what i have for the truck and hauler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share Posted August 25, 2006 just get the one that plays off an fm frequency.....that what i have for the truck and hauler I would but there is already the factory radio and satellite antenea in the truck that I would like to utilize for a cleaner look. Besides I've found the fm modulator way isn't as good of quality sound as a hard wire antenea. Oh and thanks Jackie, I'll look into that site.

offroadracer Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Hey Pete... Gm only can use xm service for factory radio.. You can get a rf sirius reciver and tune it through your factory radio on 88.3... its the same thing i went through on my 2005 I have sirius it it now but they dont have a setup for sirius to use gm's factory sat antanae..hopefully that helps ya...By the way it works great with a RF setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroadracer Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 (edited) Pete I have the sportster set up..works great, it nice , you can get other car kits for other cars and home also so all you do is slide reciever out and slide into other holster..no unplugging required..(drunk friendly) ...not calling you a drunk just saying its easy Edited August 25, 2006 by OFFROADRACER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offroadracer Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 But cdavego told me about the adapter. It's out there somewhere.

Kens Colors Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Pete I am sure you are right. I have heard it numerous times on different shows on Sirius radio. Hey why don't you contact XM and ask them I am sure they have had alot of these calls recently. sh*t someone in the sales dept (@ Hen Chev) might even know the answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdavego Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 PETE I KNOW ITS MADE BY KENWOOD AND ITS AROUND $100.00. I'VE JUST HEARD THEM TALK ABOUT ON THE RADIO. SOULD BE OUT NOW. I THINK YOU CAN BUY IT FROM CRUCHFIELD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
