Default XM radio help!!

Hey guys,
My 2008 GS350 has the SAT button and the shark fin, I want to listen to XM. How can I check of I need additional hardware or do I need to just call XM and subscribe?

Thanks

either look in your trunk and its on the upper back deck just to the side of the 3rd brake light. Or push the SAT button and if you get preview channels your good to go just need to add service.

Once you push the SAT button and you get the preview channel (channel 1) turn to Channel 0 and you will see your XM radio ID number. Go online or call Sirius XM with this number and you can activate your service.

After pushing the "SAT" button I don't have anything happening it just stays on "AM". I would like to get an OEM tuner since I already have a shark fin and don't want any additional antennas. Any recommendations where I can find it?
