RE: Sirius Radio vs XM
It looks like this is the Sirius tuner we need. I'm trying to find out if we can still use our XM antenna. $89 is not a bad price!

This is the SIR GMI Sirius module. It get's hardwired under the dash. No FM transmissions to your radio. I'm not sure how that is displayed on your OEM radio but I will find out.

RE: Sirius Radio vs XM
I just hooked up my Sirius today but my reception stinks. I had this radio hooked up in my Suburban and it worked great, I think because the windshield was larger and more of a angle. I too like Nascar and have been jonesing for a week now since I got my H3. What the heck is a grandma to do? I have moved the antennae all over the windshield. Any suggestions as to the placement of the antennaes? I don't have the xm option on my radio.

RE: Sirius Radio vs XM
I am having the GM Connect installed Friday, also found an Antenna wire that allows you to use the Xm antenna. Has anyone tried this yet, included a link below.
