    Can anyone tell me if they still have the static with this unit that people talk about on this site?

    Also, by installing the unit from Factory interactive, can you still use the sterring wheel controls to control the satellite channels, just like the xm installed unit is capable from toyota?

    Have xm now and it really sucks, the signal is not good and gets fuzzy way to much to be paying for it.

    Thanks

    I installed the Sirius unit rom factory interactive and initially had the static problem, but after the solution to the static was found, they sent me out a free retrofit kit. basically two wires. Simple to install. I no longer have any static at all.

    I also use the steering wheel controls to handle the Sirius unit.

    I just installed the Sirius unit from Factory Interactive and don't have any static. I had the understanding they already did the fix to the tuners.
