Anyone have XM Radio yet?

I'm wondering if there is a good aftermarket XM addon for our TL. Anyone?

Anyone know how the addons work? Do they go through the tuner somehow?

I was looking into this not too long ago. I saw 2 options:
1) Buy an XM radio head unit and replace your existing one
2) Buy a reciever that would plug into the back of your HU, however, not all HU have inputs in the back.

Another, not so desireable, option is using a tape to convert the signal like people used to do with portable CD players in their car.

All headunits have this input because All head units have antennas. It is called RF modulation and it interfaces with your antenna. All you do is tune to a station that you do not use and the XM is then broadcasted over that station.

doopstr here is the site www.xmradio.com
I will get it added to my factory radio in the TL sometime this summer. With all the stations its worth it to me. I don't buy that many CDs anymore. I love RB oldies & don't want to spend money on alot of CDs. I have aquired a taste for Jazz music more so the XM stations will be a great help. They offer more choices than you can name. I did here that they were cooming out with a few more new recievers this month or next.
