    I am going to have Best Buy install the XM radio. The kit came from PriusXM and it looked impossible to me(the only thing that I could do was open the trunk). I assume that is is simple for a professional installer. Any suggestions? or just tell me not to worry.

    go to this site for a pdf file....xm radio self installation guide.....

    http://www.metrotpn.com/ProductDetails.asp...px?ProductID=96

    i used this as instructions yesterday and am awaiting the xm radio ups tomorrow i hope.....i have no special skills and eddie bell said come on now you can do it....best buy will probably need these instruction also as they probably never install this xm unit.

    if i can do it anyone can.

    if you still think you can't do it call eddie

    Still have questions? Give us a call 877.885.2900 ask for Eddie.

    Did you get the DVD from PriusXM and still think it looked too difficult?

    It really isn't that hard if you're handy at all. But you're right, it should be a very easy job for a professional installer, but they may want to look at the DVD/instructions before starting. Be sure to set a fair price before they start the work....I'd say $100 max.

    Best Buy did it and it works perfectly. They charged me $47.50.
