The easy fix is

Get a external XM radio. Cost is 50 to 100 bucks. The big deal is you can take it with you inside to another car. I have XM in both my trucks but I use a XM external radio because I am different vehicles all the time. Its cheaper and not a big deal to move the radio.

I have a simple external XM radio that I transfer between my truck, SUV and RV depending on which I am using. Each of the vehicles has its own radio base that I plug it into, so switching the radio around is just plug and play.

Just pay for the App and run it through your smart phone over bluetooth audio or the 3.5mm jack if you don't have sync in a vehicle. No screwing around with another radio that way.

If I could figure out how to RIP that sirius $#!t out of my dashboard without effing everything else up, I would give it to you...
Good luck!
