Review on Delphi Roady XT SA10276 XM Satellite Radio Receiver by Marcus Merritt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good thing but how do I hide the wires?

I bought this for my mother as a Mother's Day gift and she is very happy with it. It simply snaps onto the air outlet and you connect the adapter to the cassette deck of your car radio. Thing is, there are wires everywhere that don't seem to bother them, but it does bother me. The manual recommends gluing the antenna to the rear window but doesn't specify how to route it out from the outside so the wires don't stick out. A previous reviewer said they just left the antenna hanging from the bottom of the car, but when I tried it it didn't work all the time, so we have a magnetic antenna on the passenger door. Careful. After registering with XM online (cheaper than over the phone), the service was up and running within 15 minutes. The XM is great, wish I had one myself and this little receiver has a lot of cool and easy to use features. Unless you know where to hide the cables, you may want to opt for professional installation.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
