08 TL adding Sirius?
Love the car - hate the radio. Can anyone help a non-technical person understand who, how, what I need to do to get Sirius installed the cleanest way possible? I know I can just put the FM modulator unit in and add an antenae - but there has to be a better way?
Thanks,
Pete

A few months ago XM and Sirius announced that they were trying to merge. It just needs to be approved by the FCC, so you might want to hold on adding equipment to your new car.

Vais Tech is developing an interface for Honda/Acura. It was supposed to be released this month but has been delayed. They're apparently working on an ipod interface and need to finish it first.

So has this taken effect yet or is it on the horizon soon? I plan on buying a 08 TL w/Nav very soon, what will this mean for the TL's? Will it just simply change to sirius?

The merger has already happened
The merger is already complete.
October 6th has been widely reported as the date that Sirius XM will begin offering what is called the "best of" packages that gives subscribers of each service the best stations on the other service.
Here are some details.

It will be further along, likely next year, when radios are sold that get signals from both satellite services.
