Sirius Audio Question:

Hey guys i recently purchased a 05 c230ss, I wanted to get the sat radio installed, Well my sales rep said 750.00 aftermarket. I said nahh thats way to much , I was wondering how does that work there isant a SAT button on my h/u. I know on the h/u's with Navi they have the sat button ,But i was wondering how would it work on the basic h/u. Because if i have to tune to a channel and all that id rather save 500.00 and go to Best buy and get a Delphi unit. What do you think guys? Anyone have STOCK SAT on there c230?..Please post a reply!...Guss

You get a satellite "soft" button.

I believe this is covered in the manual about the radio, with illustrations.

A manual? Yeah it should have come with your car.

Whoa!

$1678!!!!!!!

Mine was $679 for the kit and $300 install, including the (extra effort of)installing the antenna behind the rear glass! It, too, included the 14 free months.
