I just added the Roady2 to my car. It has a wireless FM Modulator. For now I have the antenna on the dash until I get it professionally installed and I will be receiving in the mail a free home kit.

I know that the sound isn't as good as if it was wired in but as everyone knows there isn't any AUX inputs. For someone who has Nav and won't be seeing a SAT being added any time in the near future, it sounds just fine.

Here's a pic of the install....

Great info, Teg. Also, Radioshack now carries Sirius. They have a receiver ($99, I think), a car kit ($49), a home stereo kit ($49), and a boombox ($99). The receiver is required with any of the kits/boombox. If the annual sub is pre-paid, it works out to $9.99 per month; I think it's $12.99 per mo. without prepaying, but I'm not positive. The $9.99 deal is good through 7/17; not sure after that if they'll continue it.

I work at RS part-time on the weekends. This is not an ad for RS as I could care less if anyone gets it. If, however, you're near Parsippany, NJ, PLEASE come see me! There is a possible 10% discount but I won't go into any detail on that here. Please let me know if anyone has any questions.

Thanks again, Teg.

Sam

Pretty sweet. Let us know how it sounds after a little while. That way we know if it is really worth it.
