FirstTimeLexusOwner Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I just bought a 2005 GX470 without navigation. How do I put Sirius in this car? Will it work with the factory radio? Can it hook into the back, or will I need another faceplate mounted somewhere else? Please help!! I am a Sirius addict and I need to resolve this fast. I am in Oklahoma. Thanks!

GX46 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I put the antenna in the rear, ran the wire along the driver's side interior...tucked the wire under the seem along the roof and side panels...I put the Sportster (and wires) in the ash tray (adhered it to the open ash tray with a lot of double sided tape) and plugged the power cord in the lighter and tucked the excess wire in the ash tray also. Looks decent. Can post some pics if you would like. Hope this helps. GX46 sends... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also need to know if you used your Lexus radio, or did you buy another piece? I have my old antenna, but how does it connect to my factory radio? Did you replace it with the $300 one at Best Buy. Please help, Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinheel Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 After some time of back and forth with the dealer and the dealer back and forth with corporate, they agreed to install the sirius kit (which works thru the nav/radio) made for the es330 into my 06 GX470. It works great and is accessed by pressing the 'am' button to cycle thru am, sat1, sat2, and sat3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
