Default Sat Radio, etc.

Sorry to bother you guys (new to all of this), but I have searched this forum and others for a consensus direction on what to buy to enable my 07 TT with Sat radio and the other upgraded goodies (e.g. bluetooth). I see two companies mentioned: 1. NAV TV and 2. Denison.

Which is best/most integrated?

As I said, I"ve seen a lot on the topic, but the posts are dated and well, I'm not feeling it.

thanks for your help...

Dension 500SBT for PCM 2.1 will give you direct-to-the-loop ipod, usb, aux and bluetooth (streaming and calls). You can add a Sat Radio receiver with aux out to bring the audio right to the fiber optic loop too.

Everything remains stock.

I looked at various options, including the ones you mentioned. I wasn't happy with the reviews etc. and decided to wait it out to see what else was out there. One of our members on here posted a link to a device he has used. After seeing/reading his review, other video's etc. it was a no brainer and I pulled the trigger. See link below:

I installed it myself and it was quite easy - the hardest part was getting the radio out. It streams Sat radio, Songza etc....plays your music via bluetooth and comes with a hands free mic. Best part.....it does not break the bank! Cost me less than $200 for the entire unit and about 1.5hrs of my time. Check the reviews, this product gets 2 thumbs up from a ton of people. I am surprised people don't talk about it more when looking for these options. Hope this helps!

I have the NAV TV in my 997 and while it works ok, the functionality is very strange. Unless they have upgraded the software significantly in the last 5 years I can't recommend it.
