Sirius Radio Options other than dealer?

I have a '07 C230 with the sirius ready head, is there any other way of integrating the head unit anything other than with the factory sirius unit? And if you did it what unit did you get? Thanks

Perhaps buying the require parts at a wholesale dealer (trademotion mercedes) and then buying the maintenance DVD from mbusa. Then you can install the sirius yourself and save money.

You could get an aftermarket Sirius radio and use the Aux-in to feed the audio. But if you want integrated with the headunit, then you have to use the Mercedes parts. You might find them for a cheaper price on eBay, just be careful who you are buying from.

I had SUNIL integrate my SIRIUS into the COMAND. It's absolutely worth the money. Having the best work on your car is expensive though!

Did you use the Mercedes modules? Or did you use an aftermarket external Sirius radio and use the aux in?

No mine is completely integrated. Nothing using an AUX port. Mine uses the factory OEM Mercedes Sirius module. Also had a painted sirius antenna mounted on the trunk. Looks awesome
