Adding XM 'module'
I added Nav radio to my 05. (Am meeting with a friend tomorrow 8/22 to get rid of 'Theftlock') I also was given the XM module. I know the module goes above the left wheel inside the driver side carpet in rear. Is there a wire there that I'm suppose to unplug and/or plug into the XM module?

Excellent, the XM button magically appeared after I installed the XM module. Shout out to Ray Kawal - He said on his website that it would be hidden... and yes it was. As well as covered in black electrical tape - Just as he said. Here is his link, http://www.kawal.net/vettemods.htm

In addition... I found the plug for the XM module, but, where are the green and yellow connections to plug into the XM module? There is no XM antenna on top of the halo. Does that mean I won't find the yellow and green plugs?
BETTER QUESTION... Is the long black box mounted to the right of the rear view mirror on the windshield an XM antenna or is that for OnStar?
