One more Question, XM RF hookup, attenna question?

Guys, is our attenna connection a standard plug or is it one of those weird ones maybe like GM vehicles have? So would I need a adapter?

Also anyone have instructions on how to get behind the stock stereo?

If you just need to get to the antenna, you DON'T have to take out the stock radio. The antenna is plugged into the drivers side of the head unit on the bottom corner. You can easily reach by taking off the kick panel and reaching behind it. The plug is a standard antenna plug.

On another note, if you have RCA outs on the XM use them with Streeteffects add on thing. The sound quality will be 1000X better!

I am a bit confused what you mean on this. RCA outs on the XM? Even if it has RCA outs, I stilll have to connect it into my deck somehow. I tried to hit CD twice on my deck, and it did nothing. Some said aux would show, mine did zip.

Nothing will happen if you don't have anything connected to it. If you have streets gizmo connected to it, it will act as if it is connected to a cd changer. When you press CD the second time the aux input will be activated, but it won't say aux, it will say something like cd 1 track 99 or something else.

Believe me, YOU DO NOT WANT TO USE A FM MODULATOR, I HAVE BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT AND IT SUX!!!! If the XM has a RCA out, put it to use.

It doesn't. But StreetEffects has another device that will work.
