Default Anyone install this?

Has anyone installed the OEM Sirius radio system and antenna in the truck?? Mine didn't come with it, but I would like to get it. The on'y thing im wondering is if you can use an aftermarket antenna, because the factory one you have to cut a hole in the roof. Im to chicken to do something like that. ( PLUS i know something would go wrong. thats just my luck)

I really don't want to go the aftermarket route on the system. I would rather it run right thru the radio and not have to have extra stuff on the dash. I don't want an aftermarket radio either.

The sirius is nice...but I can't justify drilling an inch and a half hole in my roof for some dorky antenna lol.

there is no drilling with the xm antenna.. the cables are routed thru holes aready made and the antean is magnetized so it sticks on to ur car.

I agree with you that the Sirius is the way to go so you don't have that goofy add-on display stuck where it doesn't fit. I was ready to order one (I've used discountmopar.com for that stuff) but didn't realize you had to drill the hole. I agree I'm a little squeemish doing that...
