Think I'm going to add xm to my sc. Already have a double din setup. Think I'm going to remove my CIG lighter and use the space for the xm radio. Anyone done this? If so do you have pics. Also interested in any other installs someone might have. Pics are great.

TIA

I'm thinking of going XM radio too, don't you need to add one of those shark fin antennas?

if you have a double din that supports satellite radio you should be able to just buy a satellite antenna and route it to wherever it's visible to the southern sky usually.

Biddle, no you don't need a shark fin antenna. They supply you with a magnetic antenna. I have installed multiple xm radios and fond that just locating the antenna inside the car on the dash in the center as close to the leading edge of the windshield as possible will give as reception as good as anywhere.

My pioneer does not directly support xm.

i have that installated a few weeks ago , its a little box with a very thin antenna like a sticker



this is a Kenwood antenna and the pic is not taken from my car
the sound quality of the radio is amazing compare to FM
