Question Xm Radio (delphi Skyfi)

Anyone planning to install a Delphi SkyFi unit in their GX?

Just curious as to location for the unit and the antenna placement.

Would have been nice to have that integrated into the nav screen. I am not sure where it could go (display head unit).

Default Second That!

I've been an avid listener on the XM route for the past couple of moonths now and have been enjoying every minute of it.

Sad thing is that after doing some research at ClubXM.com, there is no way to use the FM Modulator with our vehicles that have the Navi.

The only way to use XM would be to either change the whole stereo setup or use the cassette adapter thingamazee.

I am also having second thoughts of placing one in the GX because I can't seem to find a good location for the SkyFi unit itself.

Shucks!

I do love the Mark Levinson Stereo though.

A Pioneer GEX-P900XM sat. radio might be able to be integrated into the Navigation display with VLAD's video navi box (see electronics forum for more information). Although XM radio isn't mentioned here the GEX-P7000TV has IP bus input/output and the Pioneer GEX-P900XM could be plugged into this. Interesting solution... but it still won't solve the Audio problem for RF modulator.
