dude thouse wires are snipped kinda close.....did you rack up a big xm bill and not pay? cause whoever bought this would have a hard time activating it.

:sigh: WTF?

Looks like plenty of wire left to make connections.

From my experience, the XM bill is pre-paid. ie you pay before you get the service.

I don't think pacethis is the seller, he is just trying to make people aware of the item, but.....

Why would you say that anyway?

Quit crapping on threads....If you don't like what's for sell, just move on.

We don't need your opinion listed on every item that is posted.

Not at all. For the most part, the wires would be discarded anyway, replaced by the lead-in wiring from an XM antenna. The power leads are likewise no biggie.

 

Activation is easy Just call the toll-free number, or activate via the internet.

 

I think it is a good opportunity. My only question is if the OEM radio has to be flashed to accept the module. Sure would be a nice and neat integration for a cheap price, assuming the bidding doesn't go crazy. If I didn't already have my Pioneer XM, I'd bid on it.

:thumbs: I was just pointing out some facts for other people before there was a hogwild bidding war started. Thats all, jebus some people are touchy. You just have to be careful when buying stuff like that, and yes mostly it is pre-paid but what if its STOLEN? if its a unit that was re-ported stolen it will not work.

Well, this is the nature of the products on eBay and other auction sites. It is always a "buyer beware". One major clue is that the seller has over 1000 feedback units or so with hardly any negatives.

 

Don't assume everyone here is touchy.... :thumbs: Just that the comment made struck some nerves. A little diplomacy on the good advice given would have helped. These alpha-numeric characters on the computer screen do a lousy job of conveying true messages sometimes.

If that's what you were trying to do you would have posted something to the effect of:

Might be a good deal, howeever I would be a little concerned that the module had been stolen and the buyer unable to activate it.

 

But that's not what you wrote. Instead you outright accused another member of trying to rip people off.

 

This forum is a great place to list goodies for sale and finds on e-bay, but if I got a response like that I probably wouldn't bother the next time I saw what I thought was a good deal.

Yes, and the XM module also needs to be programed I believe, I think it contains the VIN number...

P.s. I wonder if the radio wire can be bought from GM? where does it plug into?

I didn't see any spare plugs on the back of my radio...

Soundgate makes an interface which allows a pioneer xm tuner to be integrated in to allow use of your steering wheel controls and factory head unit for th edisplay.

    • This is a really late reply but I just found this thread. They won't sell the hinges. I've gone 7 rounds with them. Their solution is to buy a new cover. I'm about to buy a new cover and it won't be a Bakflip. It also won't be from realtruck.com. 
    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.
