Has anyone experience or a link for converting an XM GM Equinox to a Sirius car? A friend wants to convert theirs.

Guess not. Different receiver required?
 
Sounds like the $77 a year retention special is working again (or still). And I saw a report where someone called Sirius/XM to cancel their service and they were offered a 5 month renewal for $19.99.
 
If you forget to then cancel, you'll be back on the $12 a month deal. .

This is true - both were offered to me today after I cancelled last week - (I called about an invoice) - I took the year - I was considering the opposite of this thread - converting from sirius to xm since my other car (Acura TL) has XM built-in, and I was trying to consolidate to one account (which the merger should have already taken care of

Converting.
 
What I found.
 
If the car came equipped with XM, there's a small box that can be switched for one set up for Sirius frequencies. It's about $100 or along with cables if the radio were XM ready but didn't already have cables.

At first the friends didn't want to just pay $5 extra for the Sirius addon to XM. But that's what she ended up doing. They get Howard Stern just fine along with a few certain music channels that Sirius has that XM didn't.
 
Sirius offered XM convert box on their site but I found it first from a third party site.

Price Increase by tallman1

So... what do you all think of the new $1.98 "U.S. Music Royalty Fee” Sirius XM will start charging in a few days? I love this question and answer on their website. No fee increase.... lol
 
11. Is this fee consistent with SIRIUS XM's merger commitment not to raise prices for three years?
Yes. This fee is consistent with our commitment not to raise the base price of specific service plans for three years after the merger. The FCC decision approving the merger between SIRIUS and XM permits the companies beginning July 29, 2009 to pass through to subscribers any increases in music royalties since March 20, 2007, the day the companies first asked the FCC to approve the merger. The U.S. Music Royalty Fee implements this FCC decision.

We just let ours lapse on the wife's VUE. She got a new iPod that will hold 4,000 songs and she just plugs that in for her commute.
 
If she doesn't want to pull out the AUX cable, she's still got a 6-CD changer loaded with music for her to listen to. Her commute is about 20 minutes one-way, so it would take a while for her to listen to all the music.
 
The only thing I miss with the iPod compared to XM is that the artist and song info is not displayed on the head unit.
