YES!

Blitzsafe uses the CD changer plug in to the stereo, so the leaves the Aux available. This gives you two choices. You can used the aux set up for your ipod (I do this) or blitzsafe has an bypass and you can put you ipod in the trunk with the xm direct.

I'm running late otherwise I'd do a search for you. There are threads on this, just search.

I have XM using a Blitzsafe adapter and the factory IPOD connected to my factory (non H/K) stereo. Blitzsafe has come up with a new adapter XL3, which can be used to connect both XM and the IPod adapter....

If you are going this route and need any help, PM me...

Having trouble setting up XM

I am all confused on what I need, I have the Factory Nav with the iPod adapter connected to the head unit and I bought the XM Direct Receiver 101 /Blitzsafe SLD01, I connected everything in the trunk and I didn't get any sound, the display shows, XM Direct and Preview Ch 1, so everything looks fine but no sound.
I called myradiostore, and they told me that I got the wrong adapter because I have the ipod adapter in the dash, so that I needed the SLD03, they charge me and extra 45 dollars and I just got it, after plugging it in, I get the same problem, no sound. I called myradio store and they said that I need to remove the ipod adapter from the head unit and put it in the trunk and re-connect the original cable that the factory people unplugged to connect the ipod adapter, and then I have to route a cable from the dash to the trunk for the ipod.

I am really confused, don't know what is going on. I thought it was simpler than that, and that the XM took the place of the CD changer that is not used??

Please help....
