Re: which radio to buy for my TJ??
I got the Sirius radio for my gf at christmas, she drives a 2000 TJ.
I put the antennae on the front windshield wiper cowl, right in front of the driver's side. I also used the suction cup window mount, but I'm going to design a little console for the inside for it... Not many places for the thing to fit really in the cab that I know of. Pretty easy to install the thing. There's a signal indicator for satellite and what I think is land towers/antennas (terra). I could pick up a signal with the antennae on top of the speaker box, under the soft top, but the signal was somewhat weak, but there for sure. Now if you care about such things, Sirius is going to have Howard Stern, not XM. I don't listen to him anyways but she says she does. It's pretty cool though, great not to have commercials but there's the occasional station identification, only lasts a couple seconds tho. Troy |

Re: which radio to buy for my TJ??
I have an XM SkyFi in my TJ, I put the antenna on the roll bar and it works
great through the hardtop. Sirius vs. XM is more a choice of taste: XM has NASCAR (for now), MLB, and NCAA football, where Sirius has Howard Stern, NFL and NHL. I will move to Sirius in 2007 with NASCAR (yes, I am a red-neck NASCAR fan, GO 48!). -- JimG 80' CJ-7 258 CID, HEI 4.56 Gears, Lock-Right F&R 35" BFG MT on 15x10 Centerlines D44 Rear, D30 Front.
