Switching from XM to Sirius

I have an 05 TSX non-nav with factory XM and would like to switch to Sirius and keep it all running throught the HU etc. Has anyone done this? Is it even possible?

You'll lose the ability to control the XM through the factory radio. You'll have to get an external Sirius tuner and a SNHOND3 or blitzsafe

I should have been more clear...I want to ditch the XM completely and put in Sirius in it's place but I want to interface the Sirius the same way I currently interact with XM, through the HU. Possible?

No. You will have to have a seperate controller for the Sirius.

On a side note, anyone ever modified their factory XM antenna to house a Sirius antenna?

Did you see my post above? You won't be able to control the Sirius tuner using the factory hu.
