RE: XM Radio to Sirius Radio
Thanks D VADER!!! I didn't realize that. I went back to the site and found an antenna converter. I used the money from my mail in rebate, to offset the cost of the antenna converter.Here is the link for it:

RE: XM Radio to Sirius Radio
In reading that adapter It mentions a signal loss. I also mentions a dual input antenna input..do we have that? I would like to make the conversion. Let me know how it goes.
This adapter will allow you to use your stock GM XM Car Antenna with your SIRIUS Satellite Radio. This is a great adapter for people who are using the GM Connect and want to use their stock XM antenna instead of a SIRIUS Magnetic antenna.
The XM Antenna will not pick up the SIRIUS Signal quite as strong as the SIRIUS Antenna.
NOTE:This adapter will only work with Dual input antennas. Please check to make sure your radio is compatible prior to ordering. We do not compile a list with compatibility for this application.

Hummer
2004-2006 H1 (must have BAND button)
2003-2007 H2 (must have BAND button)
2006-2008 H3 (must have BAND button)
I could have bought the same tuner locally for the same price and saved the shipping but my local radio shop said this tuner will not work!

RE: XM Radio to Sirius Radio
I called TSS-Radio today and spoke to Jamie and he told me although it says on the package of this tuner, “Compatible with the 06’ H3” it will indeed work with the 08' H3. So I’m headed out to my garage right now to install it and I’ll let you know how it goes. Frankly I have my doubts.

Did anyone see that FCC (and Congress) might change their mind on the merger??

RE: XM Radio to Sirius Radio
Well, I’ve been at it for almost 2 hours and I don’t think this tuner will work. I removed the radio from the truck completely. The directions say to connect the Factory SDAR Interface Cable from the SIR-GM 1 Tuner to the Factory wiring harness on the radio BUT there is simply no connection or port on the radio that matches the connector on the SDAR Interface Cable. Unless there is some secret to this or I’m missing something, this ain’t gonna work!

RE: XM Radio to Sirius Radio
I did Jglow713's for him today.
The plug for the XM is up above the glove box, and under the Passenger Airbag, reach in from the center and the plug comes right out.
I didn't remove the XM box due to the location and not wanting to mess with the Airbags. The Sirus box fit nicely in the bottom of the center, under the temp controls.
We did have to use the Sirus antenna, but he'll be getting the right adapter and I'll fix that.
It works better than I thought it would, all the controls/displays on the Head Unit that were XM are now Sirus.
