I miss my XM radio that I had previously in another vehicle and would like to install one in my Rogue. It is a 2010 S 360 without the Bose option.
I was wondering if either the satellite antenna or wiring is already installed in the roof panel?

If anyone has gotten into this, I would like to hear your comments.

Since that's not an available option on that trim level I'm gonna say probably no for the wiring, and definitely no for the sat antenna. Saves them time money and materials for not adding these things on trim levels that don't offer that option. Your simplest solution would be getting a portable unit to plug into the AUX jack located on the front of your head unit.

I had one of the portable units on a previous car and was not at all happy with the performance. Swore that I would only go with a factory unit after that.
You are probably right in that the wiring is not installed. However, I find that it is in for several of the options that were not installed at the factory.

As been discussed earlier...no. It's not a cheap add-on either. You'll have to replace the antenna with cable then add a xm tuner to it. Your radio does support but antenna have to be replaced. Overall cost goes over $200. Search on nico...there's at least 2 treads about adding xm option only in rogue section.

Say Philipp, are we talking about this model?

Or this model?

To the best of my knowledge, neither of these support XM Sat.

Mine is like the top one. I was pretty sure that it did not support XM but might be replaced by one that did.
After looking at it closer, I doubt that any aftermarket replacements would look factory after being installed.
Any chance that one of the higher end Rogues included XM?
My older Pathfinder supported XM, but only with a Nissan unit that was very expensive.

Found that model used on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/2011-2012-NISSA ... d5&vxp=mtr
@OP, is your unit a 1 1/2 or Double DIN? Might need to replace some of the dash components for a proper fit.

I like the way this radio looks. Cant say the same for the speakers. I am going to be changing them very soon. Gonna add a small amp and maybe even a sub. Not sure yet.
