I posted this in the A/V forum but I think there may be more traffic here, sorry for the dbl post


Hello all,

I have been doing some extensive reading about changing the XM to Sirius in Nissan vehicles. From my understanding I would need to swap out the exisiting XM tuner with the Sirius tuner Part #999U9-AS006 (plus modify the antenna jack slightly)

Has anyone tried this with a 2010 model ???
Will the steering controls work to change channels etc ... ???
Will the Bose screen display all the proper Sirius information (channel id, artist etc ..) ???
Where is the XM tuner located in the 2010 Altima ???

BTW, I am from Canada and I can not get XM with the best of Sirius, as the 2 companies have not merged here.

Thanks for your help

You may be the first to do this. Not quite sure what needs to be done since I have an 08.
