Hi all,

I'm sure this has been covered on here before, but I couldn't get any results from the search. I have the stock MACH 300 stereo, with the CD-6 Head Unit, and I know that it has both a SAT button and an AUX button. Can I get a factory installation kit and receiver/tuner for Sirius from Ford and plug+play with the stock HU? If I can do this without needing a seperate control module on the windsheild or the dash, or an aftermarket deck with Sat control, that'd be great. I'm going to try and avoid overhauling the stereo in this vehicle as long as I can, as I'd rather spend the money in the resto and customizing of my other truck...

Thanks!

I like the options of the interfaces made for an Aux or the ones made to put Sat Rad into the stock head unit. I see that there are companies that make XM modules that connect direct to Factory Ford radios like ours in the 05-07 Escape...thing is, I want Sirius instead...lol!

So, I have a few options...I could locate a newer factory head unit, and get harnesses, or get perhipherals for my current stock deck, or get a stand alone Sirius kit with the controller, OR, just give in and buy an aftermarket deck with a direct connect port on it for a Sat Receiver AND have USB/iPod integration (I don't care about the iPod stuff, as I don't have one, and refuse to buy one).

Thanks for the link and the suggestions!
