sirius xm box for older alpine 7893?

[76stepsidechevy]

Anyone know if I can still get a sat radio box for this radio? It says xm ready but I don't know what has changed since the sirius xm merge. I'd like to keep this radio since I like the looks and the features and its 60x4 so can get away with out an amp for my highs, I really dont want a tuner stuck to my windshield either so im hoping I can use what I have.

you can get a box that connects between the antenna and the radio and has the sat antenna.. then going to sat mode will give the sat channels,, sat radio will spoil you in a hurry, don't you think? mine came free with a new Challenger and i am hooked..

sweet, My boss has it in everything and left one of his tuners at work for a few weeks hooked up to the shop stereo and I got spoiled is right. Our local rock station has gone in the crapper and hearing the same 5 songs and commercials at least 10 times a day is killing me slowly.
