You dont have it.
Just to make sure, Do you have a compartment above ur radio? If you have a flip up door, you dont have SAT. Then if you want it you need to buy a DIN unit. I have a sat button too with no satellite. You need more than a tuner, you need a sat unit.

The SAT tuner is in the trunk. If you have a flip open door above the radio, that indicates that you don't have navigation, not a satellite radio receiver.
Vintage Car, if your coupe is an 04 or later, it comes prewired. If it is an 03, a check of the VIN will tell you if it is prewired. If not, you need the $60 cable to wire up the SAT receiver to the head unit.

xm tuner
Where do I get an XM tuner. I've searched their website, but only see the recievers and a mini-tuner for home use. And do I need an antenna as well?
Something like this work?

xm tuner search continues
Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place, anyone have a part number for this XM tuner I need and the antenna. I did find the XM mini antenna on grubbsperformance but only see the XM reciever. I dind;t think I needed a reciever since my radio is Satellite Ready, I only need the XM tuner, right? Where do I get just the tuner?
