Default XM Sirius question

Hey guys. Quick question. I just bought a civic hybrid with navi and xm radio. Can I use the same XM account on both cars? I would assume not but who knows.

I drive a lot for work so it would be worth the money if I could have it on both cars. I googled and searched this forum, couldn't find an answer.

Answer is no unless you have a portable unit/car kit in both cars. However if you call up XM' the 2nd account will usually be discounted.

XM is married to your device ID. As said earlier get a portable unit to stick in the stereo.

You can also use your phone/andriod device instead of buying portable unit just use bluetooth/aux to connect.

Id check out all the free apps for music or news... but if XM is a must you can also get a discount for adding another device on the same account.

Heads up - they may give you a sweeter deal over the phone. My friend initially denied their $15/month offer after her trial ended (with a Kia) and they called her to offer a 6 month deal for $30.
