    Is there a way to add Sirius XM to my current factory car radio on my 15 Prius? I'm not interested in an after market radio or the standalone receiver that you can put in and connect to your radio.

    15 Prius? You're asking this in the wrong forum.

    No. If the OEM radio did not come with the XM, then there is no way to add to it.

    You can get one of their introductory deals for four or twelve months and then use the included streaming from your phone to your current radio. There is also a deal where you get an Amazon Dot which allows streaming in your house. Or a student deal that is really good since its only $4 a month after the $1 intro offer.

    They also have many extra channels on streaming they don't have via satellite.

    Plus you could pick up a used ebay standalone car receiver and a magnetic antenna for use on long trips.

    What to do after the introductory deal? Cancel and they will negotiate or send you email offers. Or just pick the regular service you would buy anyway if the xm radio was built in.
