XM Install on non-pre-wired 03.5

Based on what I've read here, (and what my service manager told me) $900 for the install doesn't sound too appealing. I'm planning on getting the hardware from my dealer, taking it to CC, and getting an install done. The manager of their auto accessories installation deptartment is a good friend who I know will do good work... and charge $50.

Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act of 1975, they can't legally deny me warranty coverage on the parts, and all they can decide not to cover is any rattles/generic problems that occur along the route of installation, and it must additionally be proven to be caused by the installation.

Other than a possible antenna upgrade (location-- rear deck? I heard it's a solid 80% performance, but is boosted if placed on a plate), any thoughts on if this is the correct course of action? Thanks,

G

Re: XM Install on non-pre-wired 03.5

I was also wondering about this. I was thinking about having XM radio installed on my coupe, but was wondering about the price of equipment and install. Anyone?

I'll let you know what the dealer and CC say tomorrow. I'm going to call early on to get ahold of the GM at the dealership; he knows where to put the pressure to make sure I get what I want [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]
