    What is the status of the integrated Sirius Radio for the 2007 Prius? Toyota lists the Sirus radio as an accessory on their website: http://www.toyota.com/prius/accessories.html

    How can they advertise a product that they don't install or have in stock?

    Not sure either about this one, I just bought my Prius about two weeks ago. Salesman checked with parts which told him only XM :-(

    Now today I just talked to the service manager who informed me that they do offer Sirius. What I am guessing is that the parts manual states only XM and they actual install another kit from another type of toyota.

    I called toyota customer care today due to my unhappyness of not having Sirius and finding this out, and also due to what I consider poor reception with the XM unit. So I am waiting to find out what their resolution is going to be...I would be happy to get a refund and give their unit back, and purchase one from the place in DC.

    Well, I had factory sirius in my Dodge Grand Caravan - and it worked excellent. The only problem I had, was I sometimes lost reception, for a few seconds, when going under thick tree cover, or a longer than normal tunnel.

    I rarely listen to "terrestrial" radio - only when necessary.

    I let you know how it goes. The dealer is giving me a loaner for overnight, as I'm getting window etching and Lojack put in at the same time.
