Just got my self a base model head unit out of a 2010 xB as well as the Satellite kit for it as well. I probably should have done my research before hand! Does it look like I might have some issues running into installing this radio into an 05 tC? I am hoping the harness is plug and play and well as the Satellite!

 

You will have a couple of plugs that won't have any use... steering wheel controls and iPod harness. It will fit and it will work... everything that can will! (XM will work too) :D

 

Sweet! Now I just have to get the Ipod harness and I am ready to go! Thanks man!

 

Where are you going to put the I-pod port?
I think it's located in the center console box on the '07, but '05 don't have a I-pod port so the console box may be different

 

Notch a hole... it would be nice to have it fitted right, but since it's in the console it doesn't have to be pretty.

 

If you want you can replace the whole center console with a 06'+ center console that has the i pod and audio jacks in it. That's what I did to my 05'

 

Or you can see if you can just get the ports by themself and install them into your console. Might be cheaper than getting a whole new console.
