I wasted several frustrating minutes chatting with a person on Sirious XM today to find out how to interface their receiver to the OEM radio in my AP1 to no avail. Does anyone have Sirius XM that they play through their OEM sound system on their AP1? If so which unit should I consider ordering and how does it interface?

Thanks

I don't have a clue, Matt. I loved XM way back in 2001 but quit subscribing around 2012 when I'd just turn it off. What stations do you like? I listen to CDs but my '17 EX-L Pilot doesn't have a CD player! How rude.

Wouldn't it be easier just to get a new receiver that has SiriusXM built into it (along with HD Radio etc)?

My 2006 radio has an XM input (needs the XM hardware). I see these radios on Ebay.

Matt

We have been running Sirius through the stock radio for years 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.

Even though Sirius and XM merged a while ago, there are still two distinct satellite feeds, one for XM and one for Sirius. Unless the OEM XM radio will also pick up Sirius (it doesn't), you may get the stations that still originate on the XM satellite. Incidentally, this problem is also present in Toyota vehicles which use XM only.

Get this kit for the easiest install, IMO.

Not too disagree with your suggestion- but Matt could find a newer receiver with SXM/BlueTooth /Apple or Andriod integration for really not much more than the price of the item you linked to.
Just a suggestion.
