Thanks pjschaffer for the reply, I have a few in my tool box already.

We take delivery of her on Tuesday so I have not really had the chance to crawl around it yet. Can not wait to start playing with it.

Mini Convertible SAT radio install

I figured out a simple solution to installing Siruius in my Mini S convertible: I purchased the XACT Replay XTR8 with suction cup or dash mount. I mounted it on the windshield behind the rear view mirror and opened the roof and slapped the magnetic antenna next to the antenna and closed the roof - voila satellite radio - and I can remove it and listen to it though my onkyo system at home. No service dept. guys giving me the runaround anymore

My options were to buy a new receiver, use a ground loop (no guarantees it would fix my issue and would use more wires) or buy OEM. Looking forward to installing the real MINI unit without having to trace wire connections while going down the road.

Hey Cruise - what did you pay for your Sirius setup from Classic MINI? I'm having the same issue with my AUX port (works great with MP3 player, kicks off with my Roady 2) and want to move to Sirius (hello NPR and NASCAR in 2007).

Thanks in advance...
