2011 Legacy 2.5i-Install Sirius XM Satellite Radio


Recommended Posts

Hello,this is my first post.I want to install Sirius XM in my 2.5i Legacy.The radio is a basic single CD with no Nav or Bluetooth.I can get an Onyx from XM or buy a kit from the dealer for $398.00 plus install.I`ve been on craigslist and EBay and found out  2012-2014 Clarion/Harmon Kardon radios are XM ready but will not fit my car.(different faceplate,wires,antenna etc.) and my Panasonic needs either the expensive upgrade or the Onyx.What are my options? I`d like to have a clean fully wired radio for satellite but don`t want to pay over 400$.Any information and prices on other options would be greatly appreciated.

Have you priced a subscription to XM radio?  It is really expensive.  My Legacy came with XM and 4 months of service of which I listened to it for about 5 minutes.  For a one year subscription, I got an iPod dedicated to the car and downloaded stuff from my iTunes on my computer, most of which came from my CD collection, but a few from the iTunes store.  I find that if I like a particular song from an artist, its cheaper to use the iTunes store than to buy a whole CD just for one song.  I have also digitized some of my favorite albums (vinyl).

 

But for the best information and pretty good prices at all price points, got to crutchfield.com.  They are the best.  EBay can be risky although eBay does try to keep their sellers in line, craigslist is very caveat emptor.
