call that company that its assigned to. They will walk you thru the steps to sign up the radio. theres codes you have to give. You then be able to get Howard and i guess the other stuff too.

I have Sirius on all 3 of my cars, my garage and at work. You will need a receiver that plugs into the back of the head unit. The antenna plugs into the receiver. All the head unit does is act as a display. After that you call Sirius with the serial # on the receiver and they will activate it. Then it will cost $13.95 a month plus tax. It cost $8.95 for each addition receiver you add. You can have a max of 5 on 1 account. Here is a lihk to one type of receiver.
(49.95) DIRECTED SIR-KEN1 (SIRKEN1) <br>Kenwood Compatible SIRIUS Radio Tuner [Refurbished]

Once you get used to satelite radio you won't be able to listen to regular radio. I haven't listened to regular radio in over 3 years. Also I think Howard is a jackass and never listen to him. I love the commercial free radio stations.

I had Sat radio and loved it. When i got my new car, i didn't want to put an add-on radio for it in, so i cancelled.

I'll tell you one thing about Sirius, they are very persistent on keeping you a customer. Read up on how they hang up on you when you cancel your subscription. They are agressive. I was hung up on once, and put on hold for 20 mins the 2nd time. Took 3 tries to get it cancelled. They tried to give me 6 months free and a free radio (my old one broke which is why i had to cancel) but i still said no.

I still get emails and letts for 6 month free offers all the time. If i didn't have to buy a $300 sat unit to hook to my OEM Bose setup in my Infiniti to listen to it...i would. I want an OEM setup this time...not an add-on.
