Since there is no way to actually use a word search here sorry if this has been talked about before. My car has the pre-wire stuff for satellite radio..i dont have nav....but do i need to buy anything else(a reciever or something) to get it turned on? sirius has no idea, and nobody from nissan can tell me anything either....

 

LOL. I just posted the same question in the other forum. So far, no reply. I'll keep you posted here if any.

 

Found it! http://secure.grubbs.com/sat_install/maxima.pdf

 

Make sure your radio has the Sat button first. Mine doesn't and I replaced the entire radio and got a double din nav unit by Pioneer with XM radio.

 

well, mine does have a SAT button..but still cant get a good answer...i just looked at the link you provided..thanks.....what in the f**K is th epoint of saying it is satellite radio wired, when you still have to do all that S**t nissan blows my mind sometimes...all other car companies that say sat radio ready actually have it in the car, and all you have to do is activate it...so stupid

 

If you have it all set up- from factory,w/ the atenna on on the roof. Then all you need to do is purchase service.

If you do not have it set up- from factory, meaning you have the capability for sat. it just isn't there. Then you need to buy a "tuner" and "receiver".

Then this can be wired into the Radio and you'll be good to go. pm me if you need any help

 

thanks...is it easy to do myself? I just emailed howard stern saying i got laid off and had kids ot feed and was wondering if he would send me a serius receiver......i just dont want to pay for the stupid reveiver.

 

The tuner is <$100.

The install is not THAT involved, you have to tap a power and ground source, get the signal into your HU, and mount and run the wire for your antenna.
