The thing is pretty much plug and play. The 2 units are small (combined, it's smaller than the OEM XM box). Everything you need to get to is on the right side of the trunk, behind where the right 1/4 panel is. Just unclip/unscrew the little clips and stuff to pull the right trunk side linter piece towads the spare tire, and you'll see the OEM harness and XM box. You just unplug the XM box and plug the Sirius unit in. It gets power and everything through the OEM harness. I ran the antenna to the stock subwoofer, and it sits by the glass, inside the car, in the middle, on the rear deck shelf. Start to finish, took me about 20 mins. Reception is great. Even with the antenna inside the car, it's better than the OEM XM's reception. Doesn't cut out as much. I didn't buy/use that XM > Sirius adapter for the antenna, because 1.) it's pricey, and 2.) reception on it is not that good. Cleaner install, but you lose reception., and money. You "can" compleelt pull out the OEM XM's antenna and put the Sirius antenna under the colored cap on the roof, but from what I hear, the hole that actually goes through your roof is real big, and may have sealing problems. Don't quote me on this, it's what I heard. Wasn't about to find out myself for sure.
Hope that helps. If you have questions, feel free to post of PM.
