No. The BCM controls the radios.

C5s never had XM

As mentioned by others above, XM radio was not an available factory option for the C5. However, a number of people have added after market units. You may want to check out the Audio/Electronics section of the Forum. Some of the folks there should be able to help you with this. Good luck.

No, but the Roady2 XM system (Delphi) works great with the factory radio.
