Talking Easy XM Install and Cheap!!!!

I called the dealership and they wanted $600+ for the factory XM and installation!! I searched the forum and found a unit made by Terks for $150. I installed it yesterday in less than an hour! It works great!!

Does anyone know what happened to the $99 deal? It still seems like a good deal at $150 but . . ..

There is the main XM Receiver that a mounted on the roof of the glovebox. Then I mounted the second small box/adapter under the head unit behind the AC controls. I will post a few pictures tomorrow.

SPD, that looks like only one box but TSmith has two boxes, probably the difference in price?

Re: Easy XM Install and Cheap!!!!

The picture only shows the adapter. When I read the description it says that it also includes the receiver. If it has the Receiver and adapter it is a great deal.
