Customer Reviews

No more vent clip and wire farm on my dash...
I was really tired of the cheesy little XM receiver that I had - it clipped on to the vent and had three wires (antenna, power, and sound to the head unit). It was time to change.

My Pioneer DEH-P980BT is Satellite Radio ready and this unit is compatible. So I ordered it and installed it. It was just as easy to install as the cheesy unit and has the added benefit of being hidden away, and integrated into the display of my Pioneer Head Unit.

What I had not counted on was the improvement in sound quality. Even directly wired through the AUX connection of my stereo, the cheesy XM radio had some sound limitations. With FM Modulation (wired or wireless), it was horrid. The GEX-P920XM puts all that behind you!

Now I have XM as another sound source on my main stereo, all the info displays through the main unit, I have 18 presets, can search by category or station, and there's nothing blocking my air vent!

Get this - you will not regret it. Even if you already have something plugged into your IP-BUS port on your Pioneer Stereo, you can add this - they string together like a network so you are not limited to just one unit! I use this together with the CD-IB100II iPod Adapter and it's bliss!

Works good, plus great 'unknown' subscription coupon
Installed myself and hooked up to my new Pioneer AVH-P3100DVD. After install I thought I had a bad unit; wouldn't show up as a source on the head unit. Finally deduced I hadn't properly grounded the ground wire. Had it hooked up to the inside of my trunk, under the rear deck. The trunk is all metal, but apparently not all grounded? Attached to a mounting screw of my shock, and voila!
The antenna head is tiny, the picture doesn't do it justice. Just larger than my thumb! Still trying to figure out a suitable exterior mounting location. Worried it'll get popped off whenever I go through a carwash. Oh well, there are bigger worries in my life than that. :-)
Searched the web for a coupon code. Found an awesome one: XMSCION03.
$77/yr (XM Everything plan) + waived activation fee ($14.99). Couldn't apply it online as it only gave me the free activation fee. Had to call. But it worked. And you don't have to be a Scion owner. Sweet.

XM Radio for our new car!
After a great deal of difficulty with 2 other online radio resources, we finally found the right equipment for our new car. We just wanted to enjoy XM radio on our XM 'ready' car stereo. We opted for the Pioneer after market since Ford's XM Ready Factory set is not really XM Ready. Warning to others interested: do your research, car manufacturers are not so forthcoming. Thanks Amazon.com!
