Default Cost Effective Sirius?

I have a 997 with the Bose option electronics. I would like to have Sirius for the car. I want to install something that is "invisible" and integrated into the PCM screens seamlessly.

What is the most cost effective way to do this?

Get internet subscription and connect iPhone or android to head unit. If your car doesn't have connection add something like the Denison gateway.

There is an old thread on RL where this was done, but search for XM install. Sometime around 2010. Suncoast sold me the part, I think it was from the cayenne. Ric at their parts store helped me out. It worked well on my 2007 997.
Good luck.

PM TTSurgeon. He has some sort of a widget that connects his iPhone to his OEM radio and stream all sort of stuff.

I just stream via Aux plug. Not exactly hi fidelity but I only have a half dozen channels that I usually listen to so it works for me

Just did this to a customer's 997 cab. Simplest, cleanest, and easiest solution we've found to be the Dension Gateway with Bluetooth capabilities.

Install was relatively straight forward and the customer is thrilled with it.
