I am looking to purchase and have the Toyota XM radio (for Solara) installed in my 2005, no nav, no jbl Prius. Does anyone know of an installer in Southern Cal. that has done this? Or an XM install of any type that integrates with the steering wheel controls? I'm just not prepared to take apart the dash board myself. Don't want to wait until the April unit release.
I just installed the Garmin 7200 GPS with XM NavTraffic (it's great!), and along with it came the XM radio. I'm hooked already, but the interface and FM modualtor on the Garmin XM radio is not the best. I want an itegrated system, and I'll pay the extra $6.99 a month for an additional receiver.
Thanks.

I suggest Circuit City. The one in West Covia must be used to installing items in the Prius as they installed a Bazooka Subwoofer according to this article.

I had it done at Al & Ed's on Hawthorne Blvd. in Redondo Beach/Lawndale. They were also working on another Prius at the time. If you go there, make sure you ask for the installer who has worked on the Priuses.

Can I ask you what unit you had installed, and the cost? Thanks.
