I just replaced my 04 Xb with a 09 Xb. Can I get the equipment to use the installed radio/xm controls, or will I have to have the dealership install the rest of the euipment?

all you have do do is get the xm kit, you can have the lealer install it if you want or a audio shop can do it too.

if you call xm to activate tell them you bought a new scion it comes with 3 months free and no activation fee.

You would need the xm kit and about 500 bucks LOL its pretty pricy from the dealer, you might be able to get it cheeper one Ebay... the install is all plug and play pretty simple, you just have to run the antenna wire.

I went with the Xpress RC its pretty cool it has playback for up to 30 minutes and pause. I did not want the wires to be all over the place so i ran everything under the dash including rewiring the AUX cable down the cup console so that its not seen i covered the aux plug with an extra plug cover i had these usually go for 10.00 from toyota. over all i spent 70.00 (got the ERC through Ebay).
sound quality is great also since its using the AUX connection.
