    Hello,
    I currently have the 2005 toyota prius with the jbl upgraded sound system. this includes the in dash six disc cd changer, am and fm radio, touch screen display with gps etc and a circuit city added bazooka subwoofer.
    at the moment I also listen to an ipod and sirius satelite radio in the car, but I have to fm transmit them to do so and the sound quality is no good. plus it is very difficult to change channels or songs because they do not use the car's touch screen.
    I have read on here that you may suggest a solution for what I would like. If so, can you please advise me? I do not want to install this myself and would need you to recommend a place near me (in northern virginia) to do the installation. I look forward to reading your reply. thank you

    Not the Sirius, you'd need a separate unit.

    Since you don't want anything that sits external, get a Sirius receiver that plugs into your radio directly.

    I have purchased the DICE HD/IPOD module and the Toyota sirius module for cars that are not satellite ready. I am going to try to get it installed in the next few weeks. If you can put off any decisions I will let you know what I think and take some pics.

    That's fine. The kit I linked will fit an 05 just fine.
