I love the Sirius radio on the Jeep and we have it in the P car for 6 months. Would not mind it in the Honda for the summer months too

in my other car without a usb interface, I bought a $17 bluetooth to FM module, plugged it in, pairred it, set the fm station and it works great. The unit I got is a bit clunky size/shape wise, but I have a 12v outlet in the console and just use the phone controls to play music. Then I just listen to my own or Pandora.

In the S I just got a head unit with bt and usb.

No satellite for me. About the music equivalent to cable/dish to me. Pay for it and not like most stations

Just a suggestion.

I'm well aware, but as he said he wanted to keep the stock radio his options are limited.

I've been running an aftermarket radio in my S since 07.

We can discuss at SF but basically all you need is the radio and antenna. We also have the in line FM that attaches to the cars antenna into the system. I will dig out the exact info and forward to you.
We have been all over NA with this setup and have had very few issues.

I would welcome this info if you are willing to PM it to me. TIA.
