#1 of 3 2008 Quest and Satellite Radio by newquestvan

Aug 30, 2008 (6:38 am)

We just purchased a 2008 Quest SL that has the LCD information center on the center of the dash. The stock radio has a fm/am/sat button. I would like to install a satellite radio antenna and connect it to the back of the stock radio and have the satellite radio channel information displayed on the LCD (as the F.M. channel and song information is currently displayed on the LCD). I would rather not have a satellite receiver cluttering things on top of the dash. Is this type of set-up possible? Does anyone know how my car/audio system is wired with regards to the satellite radio button on the dash and the LCD? Thanks.

We have the same question. All the research I've done, still leads back to 'it has to be installed at the factory!' My wife is 4'11' and does not like anything cluttering the dash either. I was told the Radio may be a Panasonic, but am trying to confirm this. The local third party dealers (Sirius & XM) say they donot have the cables to connect. I hate it when Manufacurers Lock in a situation like this. Hopefully, someone will come up with a solution.
Thanks too!

I ran into same problem. I actually purchased the Sirius modules;
 
999U9-AS006 - Sirius Tuner
999U9-NS000 - Bracket
999U9-NQ000 - Quest N-Bus Harness
 
thinking that these would work on my 2008 Quest SL. I had my dealer attempt the install and found that the module won't install on the 2008. It was only supported up thru the 2007 model year.
 
If anyone has different information, I would love to hear it.
