According to Dodge's web site, you can't get Sirius Satellite radio w/ the coupe, just the vert. Does anyone know why?

Thanks

If that is correct, it could be due to the soft top, there's no place for them to mount the Satellite Radio antenna? My Jeep Grand Cherokee came with factory Sirius, and the roof antenna is a little large -- I wouldn't want that piece anywhere on my Viper. You can do it yourself and add satellite radio to your existing radio, placing a small antenna in the front center of the dash, behind the windshield. We replaced my factory radio with a Chrysler RB1 nav radio, and added XM radio via a Terk XM-Direct unit. Before we did that replacement, however, we confirmed the Terk XM-Direct worked OK with the factory RBQ radio.

When I installed the RB1 Nav, I also installed the Sirius radio that Dodge has. It plugs in directly to the RB1 and displays the programming and has a good interface w/Sirius. The antenna that came with it is a monster so I picked up a Terk Sirius Mini and an adapter that goes from one wire to two for the Chrysler box, also Terk, (just a little Dremmel adjustment to make sure the plugs fit) and all is great.
