Either go aftermarket or buy the factory XM receiver and antenna. Once you have the adapter connected, the radio will recognize it and show the XM station.

pre wired doesn't mean you actually have the module in your car. Just means the wires are in place for you to hook up and go.

You need a reciever box and antenna. It's plug and play in the trunk. I have a factory Sirius receiver for sale if that is an option.
