Where is the dang XM module?
Read the part where I said it could be bought cheaper on eBay... I gave $28 for it... I try to stay consistent from one thread to another... 
And I have to add... Even if I had bought this at full price, it would have at least added a function. The thing I made that comment about was just a stock faceplate to get pretty buttons. But as I already mentioned, no, I wouldn't have given their list price for this one I got either...

I was able to get mine to work.. I get the engine noise also, but as soon as I call, it goes away and people say they can hear me good. The iPhone can play music thru it also, but have found that I have to act like I'm going to call someone, hang up fast and the music from my phone play thru the speakers. I'll have to play with it and see how to work it and or make it any better. It works for now, and does what it says. I just don't like the noise it makes when not playing music or talking on the phone

OK, here are a few pictures of the location of the XM receiver.
First is the glovebox dropped down. Just remove the tether and squeeze in on the sides to get past the stops.
This picture shows the flap above the glovebox area. It doesn't look like it pulls down, but grab the edge and pull down and it does.
This shows the glovebox and the flap both in the down position.
Now if you put your head down by the glovebox and look up into the cavity, you will see the XM box. The harness is easily accessible and faces the drivers side of the vehicle.
The BlueFusion Bluetooth unit I bought just plugs in to the XM harness location and the XM plugs right back into it. Other than that, the only other wiring needed is to run the microphone to wherever you want it.

Does it have a AUX port? How does the BT work? can you push the button on the mirror or dash to answer the phone?
