2001 Acura EL HU help

I have a stock radio in my EL (a Alpine unit I am pretty sure) and want to connect a Sirius radio tuner directly to the HU. The tuner I want to connect is the SIR-ALP1 and I believe I should be able to connect it directly to the Changer plug on the back of the HU. Does anyone know of any reason why this would not work? What kind of a display will I have and what will control channel changes, etc?

The EL is basically a dressed up Civic with the SI engine, leather, sunroof, etc.

I was hoping to get more precise info from an Alpine dealer, but I don't believe that changer controls equate to Sirius controls. Added protocol. Only way to find out would be to ask Alpine and they might or might not tell you - or just try it.

Sorry to not be as helpful as I'd like...

Thank, I have looked all over the Alpine website and cannot seem to find a way to ask them a question. Do you have a link to Tech Support?
