Can anyone give me a lengthy explanation why my car can't receive Sirrius Sat radio in my OEM NAV Radio unit. Sirrius is mentioned extensively in the owners booklet. There is a button for it. This doesn't seem right.

I have seen on this board that someone from overseas may be able to sell me something but that propostion is a scary one. I don't want to void my warranty or spend $1500 for the sole pleasure of listening to Sat radio.

Thanks in advance.

Frustrated in NJ.

I don't know where you got your info from, but as far as I know, your 2003 CAN have SAT radio AS LONG as it has a comand headunit (which you apparently have) - so,just get SAT installed then.

Found a MB dealer who will do it.


$1400 bucks which includes hiding the sat antenna near the grill by the windshield. OUCH

Mad TKD

sounds about 600 bucks to much. got mine installed for 800 but had the color matched antenna on the trunk.

Mad,

Yea but I do not want any drilling so will have to opt for the more complex install. That's of course if I do it now. Thanks for the input.

Had mine installed for 750, including the color match antenna on the trunk. The newer antennas are far smaller than the older ones and I found from past experiences that there are far less drops having it on the trunk.
