XM or Sirius for '95 850

Jun 12, 2004 2 Replies

I have a '95 850 Turbo and am thinking of getting either XM or Sirius Satellite Radio. Does anyone have any experience installing either? I'm curious if the units can be easily installed or not, and how they look in place of the original system. Also, are there any pitfalls in installation?



TIA


I have the Delphi SkyFi in my Acura TL-S and the Pioneer in my Mercedes. Both XM. I would assume the install would be very similar for either service as the equipment is very similar.

Installation aside, Sirius has fewer than 100,000 subscribers where as XM has almost 2,000,000. Something to think about when selecting which to get. XM is also a bit cheaper.

Avoid XM. I'll never buy their service after seeing the commercial where the asshole drives through the building, up to his desk, with "music" BOOMING all the time, then he moves the tuner to his desk speaker/amp unit to ensure torturing his co-workers all day.

I know it's not true, but it encourages playing music so loud that everyone outside can hear it, (The auditory equivalent of farting in elevators).
