I am waiting to pick up my Armada and I do want the sat. radio installed.

I could get the dealer's for $490 or an after market for $375. The question is which one is better?

Anyone on the forum had this done after market?

Thank you!

I have the factory one and the nice thing about it is you don't even know its there. Aftermarket and you have to put it some where. I think it worth the extra to have dealer intalled option. Clean and nice!!!!

I have an 06 LE NAV with factory XM. It is great. It seems the 2006 XM reciever sends out 14 characters to NAV readout, unlike the past was like 10.

Thank you guys. I am going with the dealer installed. I do no have nav. so I guess it will be one line in the radio screen.

Adding on to what the above wrote, I think the ONLY disadvantage is that the display doesnt scroll the information sent from the satellite station. Kinda sucks, but I like the whole OEM integration. I guess its a trade off.
