Ok... point by point.
 
1. I was referring to the lack of BT on the factory LGE POI NAV HU in the Limited WITH the Infinity sound package.
 
2. I would love to try all these HU's but I have yet to find an aftermarket stereo store around here in West Palm Beach that have radios connected to a satellite source.
 
3. I have looked on YT and have not found videos that show satellite radio operation.
 
4. the 1500 was a just a number pulled out of my GMO (gluteus maximus oriface)
 
5. The power seat is not an issue just a thought because my wife asked me if it was available (she likes the lumbar support)
 
6. I scratched my head at the roof rack too. It is designed for snowboards, surfboards and bike racks but it looks like it could handle a few painter's ladders too or some plumber's pipes.
 
7. I have connected my 4 year old PNP and found a somewhat quiet FM frequency. I wonder if I can use the line out from the PNP to interrupt the XM Audio in signal coming to pins 4 and 20 of the 32 pin connector on the back of the radio since I don't intend on subscribing to XM (I have a lifetime Sirius subscription.)
Then I would be happy enough. I just have to figure out how to replace the XM/GPS antenna with a Sirius/GPS module. Perhaps something from Ford, MB or Chrysler...

Okay...I'm on the same page as you now.
 
Lack of Bluetooth sorta had everyone scratching their head.
 
The one store that does connect their HU's to a satellite source is Walmart, however...they don't carry double din units.
 
I put the You Tube thing out there simply because you can find almost anything out there, wasn't really sure if there was or not...sorry.
 
You would easily spend $1500 if you took it to an audio shop and got it from them.
 
I never understood why car companies never take the front passenger's comfort into consideration. I mean...if a couple goes on a long trip, shouldn't the passenger seat be just as comfortable as the driver's seat? Who knows what they were thinking when they make that decision.
 
I'm still trying to imagine an Azera rolling down the road with a roof rack. Guess it seems odd because I just haven't seen one. I've seen other cars with them, but not an Azera.
 
Sounds like something you could try and see what happens. As far as the antenna issue, you may need to run a separate one and mount it on your trunk lid or something. Considering the low profile some have now, it wouldn't even be seen that much if you went that route.

What do you think of splicing into the XM Audio in as a replacement for the FM modulator option? I imagine that I can't fake the CAN BUS inputs but how about the audio signal alone?
 
As an aside...
 
My dad's 04' Maybach does not have BT but has a V60 hardwired to the radio. When I contacted Maybach (Becker actually) they said they could replace it with the newer unit...for $4,000.00....
The satellite radio has no remote nor a way to input a channel directly. It has a lousy radio information display and control system too...but for 300k+ you do get massaging driver and passenger seats with 10 way power (including the headrests!), 5 memory positions and heating (but no cooling like his Navigator had...)

You would be splicing the Sirius unit into the XM input???
 
Sometimes...it's funny how cars are put together and what they come with...in regards to the price paid.

Yes. The connector appears to have two sets of leads back to the STU in the trunk. One to control the unit and one to take the audio out. I have to get the specs on the STU itself which may take a while. If so I may be able to put an AUX jack in that will disable the XM signal to the HU.
 

PARTIAL FUNCTIONALITY WILL BE RESTORED! IT IS A MORAL IMPERATIVE!

Seems like you could save a lot of time and effort and simply tie in via an FM modulator, or simply purchase an aftermarket unit that offers Sirius and sign that unit up to your account. Would save the hassle of trying to figure out how to by-pass the OEM XM source.

Too easy
 
I just hate FM Modulator options as I always seem to hit areas that clobber them...but that may be the only way to do it.
 
It's more of "damn it, this shouldn't be this hard" -itis.
 
But the Kenwood DNX9140 does look quite sweet.....
 
Are all GPS antenna connections the same? If so could I just replace the bug on the roof with a Sirius/GPS antenna unit (perhaps something from MB/Ford/Chrysler?)
 
What kind of mods to the harness would be needed to tie into the Infinity and steering wheel controls?

I figured you would say that. LOL
 
As detestable as the modulator option may be, sometimes...it's the best solution if you don't want to get a unit with satellite radio incorporated. If you do, just spend a little extra money and get a really good FM modulator.
 
The Kenwood DNX-9140 definitely looks like a sweet unit and that would be an option where you'll spend closer to $2000 for the unit and installation (unless you do it yourself).
 
I'm not sure if the connections are the same, however...in some cases I would say yes because like the Kenwood unit...it can handle either XM or Sirius, depending on the package you purchase to connect to it. I'm not sure if it's just an antenna you get or an antenna and a tuner. I would think a tuner as it would have to interpret the signal received by the antenna.
 
No mods would need to be made, you can actually purchase an adaptor that will allow you to utilize the steering wheel controls. The company that makes them is call PAC Swix...Universal Steering Wheel Control Adapter

The install seems straight forward (from videos I have seen) I am trying to find the instructions for doing the install myself. I know I have to install the SCC1 unit and run an antenna. I hear that the XM antennas are not satisfactory for Sirius reception. I also want to make sure that the Kenwood can accompdate HD radio as well as Sirius at the same time. I understand some units can do one or the other but don't have connections for two to be set up.

The install really is pretty easy.
 
The easiest way to find about the satellite and HD issue, contact Kenwood directly. They are usually pretty good about answering questions.
