Re: xm to sirius

To clarify, this gizmo only works if you have the HU that came with the m/t package? Meaning, it would not work on the HU w/ nav system?

Re: Nav System does not recognize location prior to 6 am (esjones)

@#$*)(@#$ Crap. My warranty expired about 2500 miles ago. I do have a radar dector clinging to the window, low, on the driver's side of the windshield, but that has been in the same general area for almost a year. Where is the GPS antenna?
