"First Rule of XM-Club, Listen To Klaus!"
My TNR-Navigation & XM saga continues:
Purchased a used INR (non-touch screen) and brand new GM XM Radio Kit 
“Professional” installer breaks the headliner trying to install the GM XM Radio antenna 
INR installed 
Can’t find a damn GM dealer that will program the INR to my VIN
Returned both INR and GM XM Radio and bought a brand new TNR (Klaus told me to get a new TNR from the beginning) 
New headliner in 
New TNR and aftermarket XM Radio installed
Extremely poor Navigation reception and XM Radio works but the artist, song and preset displays awry!
Took apart the dash myself and found GPS antenna connection bad, easy fix
Discovered that the VSS wire was never installed
This Friday I have an appointment to get the VSS installed and the XM “fixed.” They used a P.I.E. adapter (I know, Klaus warns against this).
Lesson? Should have listened to Klaus in the first place and bought a new TNR and stuck with the GM-XM Kit! Three months of pain!

In SoCal, a portapotty would have cost $200K (if you're also buying the 5'x5' land it's sitting on..)  |

Go ahead and get the GM XM Kit. You'll be happy (provided they install it correctly).
