Is the Marauder factory radio capable of hooking up the OEM satellite option somehow?

Not that I know of, but tying in an aftermarket Sirius/XM radio is pretty simple. Mine's mounted on a modified bracket that fits in between the dash and trim panels just below the radio.

Thanks for your info. I wasn't sure as our factory units do have RDS text so I thought maybe there is something out there. I do have a S50 that has a Lifetime script but thought I may be able to do away with an extra component somehow. Also started to look into the Nav. / AV double din style units from Pioneer as well. Big bucks there. Yikes. By the time you add HD, Sirius, Ipod, Steering wheel control adapters, etc., your talking north of $1500 hunge! Clean look though.

True, that!

Hey send Pops a PM, maybe he can steer you onto something.

Same place as mine. Never leave home without it.

Yup. Only time the receiver comes out of the car is when I plug it into the boombox in the garage or by the pool.
