Couldn't sleep tonight so I started surfing. I found some product that may be better than some of the stuff I already bought. Never fails!

Below, is the NEW Sirius tuner for Honda. Not bad for $90 bucks. You do need the universal tuner as well. I found one for $50 bucks.

Hope this helps some folks. I have chosen the portable unit (Pioneer Inno). It appears to be very similiar to an Ipod except you get live XM radio! :D

I have access to Directed products through distribution (wholesale) via my business, although I don't sell a lot of it. Usually new products show up in the distribution channel first, which is where most of these sites buy from. I checked the main distributor I use for Directed and the part number wasn't in their system yet. That doesn't mean that this website doesn't have it in stock, but it's an indicator that they may not. It's not unusual for a site like this to post a product without having it in stock. Just a buyer beware to check stock before committing payment.

Very good..

I have been bit by Hifisoundconnection that took my money with the product being out of stock. Its been a month and I think I'll finally getting my speakers tonight! :mad: :( :)

sonicelectronix.com is another one that's notorious for that. They even sell on eBay when the product is out of stock. That's against eBay rules but they don't care.

cardomain.com used to be great for price matching in-stock products. They'd give you another 5% off and beat their competitor's price. Sadly, cardomain.com has hooked up with crutchfield.com and will no longer price match product.

Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but is there any news on this thing? I just got an RTX today, and desperately want my Sirius but will wait for this unit for a clean install if it's due out shortly. I could do a PNP unit, but I had this similar unit in a GM and it worked great and is very clean.

I checked a distributor I use, out of stock. Directed's online site doesn't list it. It was supposed to be out in december but it must have been delayed. It won an award at CES 2008.

Is there any detailed instruction on installing this? Wondering what all i need besides this converter box to get sirius running.

Ok so let me get this right if I purchase the HON-SC1 and the SC-C1 I can hook up Sirius to my existing stereo? I have a 2006 Ridgeline but I don't have NAV.

I'm new here and just picked up an 08 RTL w/ Nav. My question is will I be able to view the channel info on the nav screen and also use the voice commands if I install this stuff.

Thanks in advance.
