I have had siriusxm in my truck for 6 years now and I love it. I have it running through a Sony head unit. You will need the satellite receiver, and alpine adapter to make it work. I recommend throwing away the RCA cables that come with the receiver and adapter; and upgrading to high quality cables. I had many problems with electrical interference until I Upgraded the RCA and Moved the receiver and adapter behind the glove box.

alright thanks bro maybe il come across a reciever some time and get sirius . . . im

almost positive i don't have one but then again i don't understand why

someone would take a 50 dollar reciver but leave a 90 dollar adapter

i think i would rather just sell my adapter and buy a bluetooth adapter so i can

just stream music off my fone instead paying a bill to sirius that kinda makes

more since to me since i really don't listen to the radio anyways as much as

i even get ta drive my truck

unknown at this time.
that sc-c1 is the actual tuner for the sat system what you do need is the alpine interface cable or module as the case may be that allows the tuner to plug into the head unit. Alpine can provide you with that info.
