I bought the kit from gmpartsdirect.com. Everything installed with no problem.

It works properly through both the DVD/NAV system and the steering wheel controls. The song names and station names display on the NAV display and you get 12 presets on the radio, XM 1 and XM 2.

I used the XM antenna supplied with the kit and mounted it on the right side roof, symetrical with the Onstar antenna on the left side. Have seen it that way on other H2s. Had to pull down the headliner a little and drill 2 holes, but the antenna has a built in gasket that seals well on the flat surface. Total installation time was about 4 hours and it took me a while to figure out how to remove the sunvisor. Only modification to the kit i made was to cut off an extension on the reciever mounting bracket. All the other parts and connectors fit with no problem.
