Not sure this has been clear. The receiver mounts under the driver's seat, but the interface is through the factory radio. You never look at or touch or adjust or do anything to the receiver once it's installed - it's just a box. This is true for XM or Sirius. There is no factory installed XM or Sirius that I'm aware of. Either are a dealer installed option. You can get either one. They are similar. In my experience, I like XM programming better, but the antenna is on the dash next to the left front speaker grill. Not too spiffy. The Sirius antenna was located on the interior of the windshield behind the rear-view mirror. Much nicer. I have no idea why they do it this way, but . . . If you have this done, be sure they guarantee no interior trim damage as a result of the installation and carefully inspect the dash, around the current radio/NAV head unit, interior a-pillar fit, etc. before and after install. My dealer screwed most of that up and ended up having to replace the entire dash. Good luck.
