There is this cool product that worls for every make except GM called Ice-link by dension. It is pretty cool. I've seen a BMW with it installed, and it uses the OEM steering wheel controlls to change tracks, volume, etc. pretty awesome product. Supposedly it is coming out for GM sometime in december. I think i am going to wait for that one personally as I like the steering wheel controls. Nice find though Aces Full.

Argonaut,

With the soundgate product you are suppose to be able to control the devices... Example Cd changer and xm satelitte through the steering wheel controls and the dash radio controls. I will have mine tomorrow and I will let you know.

Slight delay here... I think UPS only hires complete idiots. My package has been misrouted twice today and there is nothing they can do for me now and I will not be getting this till Monday.

UPS has scheduled to deliver my soundgate adapter on December 1, hope it makes it here on time.

Can anyone tell me if I can connect one device via RCA (iPod) and one device via the IP bus (XM receiver) at the same time?

Klaus 12-01-2003 09:39 PM

Hinten,

Yes, you can. You will need another adapter, an IP bus to RCA adapter. The end result will be:

Soundgate PIOGM1V2 --> Pioneer GEX-P910XM --> Pioneer CD-RB10

Klaus, I'm not sure that I understand correctly.
PIOGMV2 into the XM Tuner; from the XM Tuner via the pass-through/exit port (I assume it has one) into the Ip-Busto RCA converter?

I understand that AUX1 and AUX2 can differentiate between two native IP-Bus devices but are you sure it can between one native and one RCA device?

Hinten,

Yes, the XM module and the RCA adapter should both work. You are correct, the XM module has an input and an output for another Pioneer device, such as the RCA adapter.

This is the setup I have purchased, but unfortunately I haven't had the time to install them...

Klaus,

When I ordered My adapter from soundgate (PIOGMV2) they told me I could us the PIO/P-RCA adapter to conect any additional device through the xm 910 tuner. Is there a difference between that and the Pioneer CD-RB10 you have posted here?

Check this out and tell me what your think.

H2Dude,

The PIO/P-RCA looks like a third-party version of the Pioneer CD-RB10. If Soundgate said it will work it should be fine.

H2Dude 12-03-2003 06:06 PM

Thank you.

I will start my project today and keep you all posted.

H2Dude 12-03-2003 08:44 PM

Okay Fellas,

Im into my XM Install. Any suggestions or recommendations regarding the antenna placement. I have the Terk 3 with about 14ft of line. where is the best spot on pushing the line out onto the roof, windshield, lights, door???

Thanks

Patriot 12-03-2003 09:16 PM

H2dude,

I have the same antennae...

I put it in the right rear corner. I ran the wire under the right rear marker light and down between the tailgate and into the right rear pressure relief housing. That goes into the back behind the right rear speaker. The speaker housing just pulls off (clips). From ther under the utility panel over the right rear wheel and up under the right rear back set where my Pioneer 910 is.

Let me know if this helps

If you want to PM me with a number, I'll call you and explain in more detail

H2Dude 12-05-2003 03:27 AM

I want to thank all of you for sharing great info on installing the PIOGM1V2 and Pioneer GEX910 xm reciever.

It took me a few hours and I couldn't have done it without the help and support from the members on this fourm.

I do have one problem. The XM plays fine and sounds great in my 2004 H2 with the Bose 6 disk changer. I hit the band button and it goes from AM FM CD then Aux 1 and Aux 2.

The problem Im having is that I get no display on Aux 1 and Aux 2. The Display works fine using the other sources(AM/FM/CD).

The steering wheel controls also work fine. Any suggestions. Do you think I have a bad PIOGM1V2?

H2Dude 12-05-2003 04:20 AM

Scott from logjam electronics emailed me and told me I may have a bad PIOGM1V2? They are sending me a new one tomarrow.

I guess that means I'll get a second chance at tearing my dash apart.

I'll keep you posted.

Klaus 12-05-2003 11:12 AM

Are you sure the XM module is connected properly and is getting power?

If so, you might try pressing the reset button on the XM module. You could also unplug the RCA adapter from the XM module, and see what happens.
