XM Radio for CL55 AMG
Any suggestions for the XM adaptor for our cars. Would like to have one installed, but which one will have the cleanest appearance?

If you do a search, you will find someone about a year ago that did a XM install in a CL class. He had the remote unit mouted in the ashtray. Looked very nice.

I just had an Alpine XM unit installed in my 2000 S class ( same ashtray, I think). It installed well in the ashtray and I used a Blitzsafe micro antenna the size of a matchbook. The Alpine unit is getting tough to find. Check Crutchfield. I have pics in the W220 forum.
It sounds great.

..............the Alpine XM tunner with the FM modulated display is not currently available. Alpine and XM are in the process of renegotiating their contract and contract talks are stalled. The issued are supposed to be resolvable and the units should begin to ship in late january. The two units will be bundled together rather than being sold separately.
